With regards to Volvos Used car Warranty, have they changed suppliers in the last two years? paid an additional £600 to extend the standard 1 yr warranty to two years, and can safely say thank god I did.
Off the top of my head....

4wd spline gear - replaced
rear bearings - replaced
Intercooler -replaced
Head gasket - replaced
thermostat - replaced
rear wiper motor -replaced.
Warranty co. even paid for an equivalent hire car whilst the head gasket was being done, they advised me that I could do this, I didn't ask!

So I guess not all warranty companies are created equal, Somewhere I have the name of the company volvo used, will try and dig it out.

I'd be interested in that. The one I am looking at comes with an Autocare warranty, but I am not hearing good things.
