After much soul searching, we had discussed and agreed a T8 with a dealer from new (was sitting in port somewhere in UK from Sweden), then someone beat us to it and order was cancelled - then we decided the B5 was a better option so went looking for one. Found 1 miles away but the price on it was so good it was worth a few hundred miles drive to acquire.

Ended up with a R Design Pro, B5, 1500 miles on the clock, 5 months old, bursting blue - with every conceivable extra you could want from a Volvo dealer.

Few months in and we are absolutely loving the car. First class in all areas and MPG reasonable with c. 44mpg on longer journeys and around mid 30’s on shorter day to day stuff.

Also got a service pack included as well... happy days..

Default Service pack

Evening,
Can I enquire how you had the service pack included on an already registered car. All dealers and Volvo UK tell me it must be within 1month on a private retail sale car and not an ex-demo or Volvo car.
Much appreciated if you can advise and confirm the dealer.

Thanks in advance.

The car would have had the service pack from new I suspect. It stays with the car.
