Half Price Discs
After reading good things about FRF Volvo in Swansea I went over there today to get a service kit for my C70. Whilst there I asked about the price on front discs and pads. They have them on special offer at the moment - HALF PRICE.
A pair of Volvo 320mm discs £67.50, pads £36, £124.20 total with the vat. Bargain. I met the famed Simon and his coworker Mike. What great guys. Knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. In my opinion businesses like this deserve our support. I have no connection with FRF but I highly recommend them. |

If they can sell them at half price and still make a reasonable profit it shows how much markup they are making on them at full price.
Ridiculous!

Phoned up and got the same quote, probably going to order tomorrow. He explained that Volvo have "specials" on certain service items every x months, might be starter motors in a month or two for example but some dealers apparently don't pass this onto their customers but FRF do.

I wonder if they'll give us a heads up on next months deal.
If it's air condensers or wheel bearings I'll stock up....

I’m going to suggest it next time I go in which won’t be long. They offer a power flush facility for automatic gearbox fluid changes so I’m going to get it done. I cam buy the fluid from parts at a discount and the service guys will just charge me Labour. Can’t say fairer than that.

Got my 320mm discs, pads and backing plates arriving today. Won't be able to actually check them out until the end of the month when I'm back though ;(
