( always good to get the whole cars software updated if it has been neglected for a few years )

Software updates are free with a volvo SELEKT used car and at every approved volvo service.

at 51000 miles it would be good to have the gearbox oil changed , if you are keeping it , otherwise it will go well over 100,000 when it ought to be changed . There is no auto gearbox service oil change specified by volvo unless you are doing " arduous" Journeys or taxi work . in which case it is every 36000 miles .



Thanks for all your advice....
We are test driving later , but the garage, Bristol st motors, have just said the service history is only up to 23k miles.. so we are a bit unsure..it would need a good service and check over..
