I have several questions for the assembled knowledge
a) has anyone had a towbar fitted by Volvo, if so how much did you pay?
b) has anyone had an aftermarket installed, if so what did you pay?
c) Volvo say that the warranty is invalidated if you have an aftermarket fitted - is this true?
d) when buying accessories what has been the reaction to asking for VoC discount?
Many thanks for all the answers on other subjects, I hope that this question will prove that I am not barking mad and these dealers are turning into stealers

I'm in the same boat at present. looking for quality without the price.
PF Jones has some good discounts at present (XC60 detachable for less than £200) looking to buy the electrics from Volvo, unless I can find 'as good' cheaper online and thinking fitting is not beyond my capabilities.
