I used to use them, nice blokes and ok prices, they also have a bunch of scrap motors out the back which they can take parts off to keep the prices down (they tell you first!).

I used them over three years and the only niggle I ever had was when my CEM was replaced to fix the fog lights and the rear wiper didn't work afterwards - I later worked out they must have used an S40 one that wasn't reprogrammed. I had mentioned it to them and they were good about bringing it back but the car got shunted a week later so I never got round to it.

Great to hear there is a lot of volvo intelligence available to new comers like me. I am thinking of getting a C70 and wondered whether anyone could recommend a decent volvo garage/mechanic in or around Iver/Slough before I buy please?

Any other recent experiences with Involve? Luckily, they are just a couple of blocks away from me, so I am thinking to pay them a visit this weekend or the next one.

Any idea about the prices I should expect for my electrical problems and especially for the speedo?
