Default Trusty Indie Mechanic Needed in the South East

I am on the look for a trusty independent mechanic - ideally looking for someone who has specialized/delt with a few 850's / V70's as opposed to a garage who specialises in volvo's in general. I live in berkshire/reading way but happy to travel to anywhere in the south east (up to 1 1/2 hours)

Reason I am looking for someone who is good with 850's is purely as I am getting the sense that my usual garages don't see enough 850s to give good advice if I need to replace something or not, they are just not sure (happy to get better advice on which garage to see as well!)

My last mechnaic was brilliant - he essentially saved me £££'s by just saying - I wouldn't waste my money here, I would do this etc...and after getting a second opinion initially he never was wrong...sadly he does not specialise/wants anything to do with my 850 and is 2+ hours away!
