Well I've finally got SOME answers in writing, though not really as much as I wanted/hoped for.
Volvo won't move on the 60% contribution, but the dealer seem to have pared down some of their charges and a few items (mostly re diagnostics and failed repairs) are no longer apparent so the overall final bill will be a bit less eye-watering. One of the factors Volvo say they use in considering the level of "goodwill contribution" is your history of buying Volvo cars. I've asked the dealer to go back again and point out that, having had company cars all my working life I have no history. But that this was the first new car I'd bought with my own money in 40 years (true!) so maybe they should think of me more as a future customer? After all we're in a demographic that must provide a significant part of their business! ![]()
