Seems odd Volvo UK appears not to know about it, especially if Mon Motors has it on their website.

Default Volvo Dealer in Cardiff

Hi All, Hope you don't mind us getting in touch, But as some have rather helpfully mentioned that Mon Motors is now operating the franchise for Volvo in Cardiff. We will be offering all the main dealer services you expect from our temporary site on Hadfield Road. We are next door to Mini.

We are only going to be here for a year or so as we commence buliding a brand new bigger showroom in Cardiff Gate. It will be next door to Cardiff Audi. If you need anything at all please call us or visit MonMotors.com and you can even reach us on Facebook.

If there is appetite for it we would like to work with the owners club and help with any events for gatherings and maybe even some exclusive offers too.

Hi, great news!
I did email your service dept on Monday with a couple of questions, not heard back yet. Maybe you can answer?
Do you activate the VOC volvo on call service
and are you able to do map updates?
What cost if you do?
thanks
Russell

Thanks, I discovered this driving down Hadfield Rd this weekend and thought great, 4.1 miles from home and 2.4 miles from the office. But then saw you’re moving in a year and will be far less conveniently placed for me. Ah well!
