Default Volvo Servicing in Northern Ireland

Hi

Just wondering if anyone can recommend a Volvo specialist in Northern Ireland or even just a garage / someone you can highly recommend for servicing in general.

Thanks

I just had a quick look on that list;

109 - Noel Robinson - 6 Drumanphy Road, Portadown, Co. Armagh (01762339996)

I meet a guy from Dungannon (who has six Volvos!!) at a classic car show at Terenure College in Dublin back in July and if I remember correctly he talked very highly of a guy named Noel that was local to him.

I need to give the guy (not Noel) a phone call about the upcoming Irish meet so will confirm with him if it's the same guy.

Just off the phone to Herbie (forgot his name earlier!!) and before I even got a word in, Noel Robinson from Portadown came into conversation about a few jobs he did for him recently!!

Anyway, details as follows;

Noel Robinson - 6a Drumanphy Road, Portadown, Co. Armagh - 028 3833 9996

He is a Volvo specialist and has been working on them for years. More of a fan of the older stuff (pre-Ford, basically), but the later stuff isn't a problem. I can't emphasise how highly Herbie speaks of him and has never had any problems in the years he's owned Volvos!

Hope this helps - let us know how you get one!

Had checked the list out but seeing the phone numbers with area codes about 10 years out of date had put me off ringing But the update is much appreciated DarrenK. Will definately check him out.

Thanks

Yes he is.

And he is great.

He's quite booked up, but he's the only place you should be taking your Volvo.

Sorted the head on my XC90 earlier this year.
