I got to agree with you. Use a good Indie. I am lucky to have one here at nottingham.
Volvo dealer prices leave me shocked at times. They are not in a premium car sector but seem to think they can charge as if the car was super premium. I wish VCUK get down to basics and rethink how they work out the manhour units to charge.
THe key factor, if ford can do it for much less on effectively the same car, than why does the cost differ so much between volvo and ford.
