I never get why people whinge about driving a few thousand miles and thinking servicing is insignificant. But, I'd not use a dealer as most are con artists and charge you lots for doing sweet f**k all. Find a local independent Volvo specialist, ideally recommended by the forum and get what's required done at a more sensible price. Even a great mechanic that's not a Volvo specialist will get it all done properly but, if you have a warranty, I'd want to the them no wiggle in case you need to claim.

I have a couple of vehicles that pretty much only got to the MOT station and back annually and yet, I always spend a few hundred quid in parts alone and give them a MAJOR service whether they need it or not.
