£176 fitted, ouch !!
Considering you'd pay over £160 delivered from one of the cheapest online suppliers, I'd say it was a bargain https://www.tayna.co.uk/car-batterie...roline/110agm/

Default New OEM battery

Local and consistently helpful Volvo dealer quotes £102 for OEM Volvo 70Ah 720 CCA battery to replace the identical spec one on my MY2015 D4 manual. It is in stock too. Tayna are probably the best online supplier of good batteries: they come closest but even they can't beat the dealer's price and 5 year warranty.

The only other thing to think about perhaps is how long the dealer's one has been sitting on their shelf.

volvo parts do not sit on the shelf , the demand is low and there are three deliveries a day from volvo so they do not need to stock slow moving parts at all . the longest time batteries are hanging around is from the day the car is made until it is driven away by it's new owner ..

My XC60 battery was a weird size, I purchased one of Amazon, and it was clearly stated it suited my XC60, it did not, it was a few 2 cm too high in height.

I went to the dealer in the end.
