I have the same engine in my V50 and do as much work as I can myself.
Servicing is really easy to do if you're handy with the spanners and I have a number of How To.. guides to help if you want them?
Saves quite a lot of cash doing it yourself as well.
Oil and filter - £30 or so
Fuel Filter - £30 or so
Air Filter - upgrade to a foam filter so can just be cleaned at every service rather than replaced. £30-£50 initial purchase.
Pollen filter - £15 or so
If you have no choice but to take it to a garage I would advise a Volvo specialist so they can reset the oil quality counter when the oil is changed amongst other things.
