I come from landrover and vw background and as we all know , things brak and need replacing ( new parts are out of question for olde cars). My question is, is there a list of what cant be fitted as used parts? I belive the radio should be coeded to car, anti theft mesure but ecu, rear view mirrors ect , thats just rubish. Has anyone fitted used parts ok? And does this apply to v50 as well? Hope im not asking to much but i really wanted volvo but im not going to visit dealer every time a bulb blows ( been there with ur quattro)
Thanks

It's the way modern cars are. Better stick to older cars (pre 2002) if you don't like it. There are some great Volvo's pre that date.
PS My 02 V70's passed 160,000 miles now and never needed to have any electronic components replaced.
