Touch up paint?
Was it used by Leonardo or Michaelangelo or Picasso or somebody famous?
$15.60 for a two bottle kit???? New to Volvo, so is this just my first taste of Volvo parts prices? If so, I'm not too happy. |
Wait until it breaks down!

Well, JM, at least this one has the 100K CPO warranty which I hope will spare me big hits for the next 3.5 years, 80K miles. Years ago, I owned a 318i BMW and quickly got tired of $100 oil changes and essentially visual inspections. I hope I'm not back in that deep valley again!
BTW, a Geo Metro? That was the only rental car I ever pulled over in and raised the hood, figuring a spark plug wire had become disconnected. (It was an automatic, too). Little did I know the thing only had 3 cylinders to begin with. You shoulda seen me scratching my head looking for the 4th plug wire! Pretty car, though, in a metallic grayish green. Tons of room inside considering its small overall size. |
Yeah, I love my Metro. I don't need a big vehicle to make up for any shortcomings.
The last time my Volvo broke down, if I had to pay someone to fix it, I could have bought 2 Geo's for that price. The little car gets lots of attention since it's all modified for fuel economy. Wait until I get the rear wheel skirts installed. |
Honestly, if you go to the dealer for everything, they YES, get ready!..I don't go to the dealer for ANYTHING. I learned fast that if I did, I was going to be broke all the time. A few of us on here use this site for parts... They offer factory parts at a HUGE discount!
http://www.fcpgroton.com/ I worked for a few dealers and I can tell you that even Honda and Toyota charge that much for paint! |
Be prepared to get bent over by Volvo.
