I would personally go for the refund option. Plenty of other good cars out there

Volvo uk along with harratts group have offered a full refund or full repair of the vehicle or exchange it goes to show that at the higher end of management they do care and have feelings not like the rouge sales man
You now have the result you have been looking for, and like others suggest, I also would suggest you now accept the refund.

I'd take the money and run, any repair or replacement would always be tainted in my mind by the trouble you've had.

I'm getting a refund I believe the true mileage has got to be over 80,000 miles the work that it needs is horrendous and found out its an ex police surveillance car the steering wheel has lost its coating wear on it is that bad so I will be looking for something else what do you recommend ?
I'm a sports car lover but I don't want a big machine like my C70 T5 it's too big something the size and looks of focus ST even better RS (I wish) ,mazda, I don't know much on Germany cars audio etc I don't really want to have something that's riddled in problems I might look at the C30 D3/D R - Design but with the issues with this one I'm in too minds now
