You really don't know this group do you?
How many cars do you think have been purchased by folks on this forum in
the past 10 years that had any significant history of service?
Most of what these folks appear to be looking for is a cheap car that
might be repairable.

With a little effort you can find an old Benz that does have service
records which coupled with high mileage, could be a bargain.

And the dealer-serviced, high mileage 2014 GLK 250 for which I paid $1500
less than comparable examples.

The only Benz I bought with records were from the early 1970’s. W115 had
sparse file but lots of support manuals and receipts of recent work. The R107
had all records from second owner (1987 on). The rest were devoid or paperwork.

It IS possible to find a diamond on the rough with no provenance/records,

For a newer car where the computer can reveal interesting information, I
might agree. For an older car, they aren't going to tell you anything
