Hello,

I’ve owned company cars for the past 10 years and it seems that I’m out of touch with general car maintenance costs….
Going private this year with a 2018 V60 D4, Volvo has quoted £450 for an interim service and £650 for a major service, seems a bit steep….

What would I be looking to pay at an independent Volvo specialist? Any recommendations for a trusted Bucks based garage ( Amersham/ High Wycombe area).

The car has 74k miles, any major watch out if I take it to a good non Volvo independent ?

Thanks

Thank you!
I did ask here about service plans but didn’t get a response. Looking at google seems to be around £500 for 2 years, sounds right?

Excellent, thank you all.
The place in Bovingdon sounds like a good start as I’m likely to keep the car for one year until things settle down.

This has been my company car for the past 5 years, it has been great so far, can’t really think of anything better in my budget

Was hoping it would need replacing at around 100k (will be sold before it gets to it), but, good shout.
Service is now due in the next 3K miles, I’ll ask the garage to take a look
