I wouldn't touch the garage in Kent near Ashford, they had a v70 of mine to diagnose for a week with a suspected Head Gasket gone, didn't do a thing (just left it ticking over in the garage) & when I collected it, the engine boiled within 8.2 miles of their garage.

I went to Braydon in Hackney Downs, London. £350 or thereabouts & did a perfect job first time.
