If the rubber bushes and washers/locknuts are available from Volvo, i'd say buy those bits and refurbish your existing drop links. However if the ones on there are pattern ones, the Volvo bits may not fit correctly.
General advice on the pattern parts is don't buy the cheapest, even if they are a known brand on "Special Offer" unless you have dealt with the seller before and know it's a genuine special offer. That's still no guarantee though and the way i view it is if it's cheap enough to buy and does the job, all good. If it's cheap and fails in short order, not too much of a problem but buys you time, particularly if you're near to the MoT time.
