V50 is due a service in the next month or so. I have heard mixed (at best) reviews of Oxford Volvo so wondering if anyone has any recommendations?

Horton Cars come high on google, anyone had any experience?

Thanks in advance.

I know a great Volvo Specialist Indie but he is based in Chalfont St Giles in Bucks. Too far?
That's just under an hour so not out of the question, recommendation welcome!

I ride past them quite regularly: no idea what they're like, but always have a yard full of cars. For a place so remote (a good 10-12 miles outside of Oxford in the middle of nowhere, with no bus or rail links to get you home!), I'm guessing people are willing to travel for them...
We are - run by Graham Lange, a good bloke. Be aware he uses OE unless you ask him not to. Recommended.
Great thanks guys will give them a call.

Just to close this one off: Horton Cars had mine last week for a full service and MOT. Lovely service, Graham and the team were great and very happy with it all (including the price.) you can tell they know they're Volvos and care about them.

Even got a "classic" V70 with a mere 200k on the clock to waft around in for the day!

Recommend.
