Located in Bham area if anyone has one that I could borrow / rent for a short time
Do you know anyone with a Porsche?

Same tool as they use.

Alternatively, fit the new belts yourself, get the tension roughly right, drive it gently to your local Volvo dealer with the belt covers off (to save them time removing them) and get them to check the tension.
