Default Volvo Specialists in DOrset/ Hampshire

Does anyone have any recommendations for Volvo specialists in the Dorset/Hampshire area for repairs etc?

Thanks all.

You don't say where abouts in Dorset/Hampshire but you could try Nomansland Garage SP5 2BP. I have only used them twice - once for an MOT (which I can't do myself) and once to download software programming (for which I don't have Volvo access). They were good on both occasions but two visits isn't really enough to base a firm recommendation on. I know they are v busy - booking a month ahead.

Good luck.

I've been using Jim & team at Normansland Garage (Volvotech) for over 5 years & they've always done a good job.

Can always phone to ask, seeming as no one has confirmed whether he does/doesn’t.

Any reputable garage should do trans servicing, in my opinion.
