Hi Clan, I did read your post yesterday, I also contacted Volvo again.
It turns out that for these Italian locking nuts, they are from the company I said "Evo Automotive" in Milton Keynes, but they will only deal with trade and not public.
It also turns out that ALL Volvo main dealers are issued with their own "Master key" and if lost or damaged there parts department can order a replacement free of charge from "Evo Automotive" ( But still not for public use, for security reasons)

So I asked my local Volvo main dealer how much for a new set with a key, and how much just to undo the 4 nuts on my car now ( about 4 mins work )

They said £57.00 for the new nut set with key, and an additional £128 to unscrew 1 nut from each wheel (with the key they got for free.)

I told them to stick it up there ****.

I am getting them drilled out, outside my house Monday afternoon for £15 per wheel, then I am buying a set of volvo nuts for £3.00 each,

Robbing T**t's
