Default Thanks to Read View Volvo - Accrington

Huge shout out for Read View Motors - Volvo Speacialist, Accrington BB5 6LY tele: 01254 234 382
Adam and the team have just turned my recent disaster purchase of a CAT D 2008 XC90 D5 from a tractor to the awesome motor it is at virtually half the price of my local "general" garages quotes.

Any recommendations near Stamford, Lincs (PE8 postcode area)? I can range as far as Peterborough or Grantham. Leicester is a bit of a stretch (over 1 hour). Many thanks

Had a service for my newly acquired V50 at DMW in Merton, London SW - additionally changed the rear discs and pads and fitted new tyres at my request.

They did a great job - very friendly from start to finish & walked through all the work they'd done and items checked.

The price was more competitive than my nearest Volvo main dealer for the equivalent work.

Also asked for a list of any little jobs I could reasonably take of myself as a lockdown pastime which they we're happy to do (e.g. just changed boot lifter gas struts) - good to talk to enthusiasts.

Another shoutout for Read View Motors at Accrington - collected and sorted a few niggling problems with my 940 very quickly and at a great price. Fully recommended!

Can anyone recommend an independent who is conversant with 700/900 series RWD models in Corwall/Plymouth?

Having done a search I see that there is RM Motors in Penzance but there are mixed reviews.

Any others about?
