I've been using Gelders to service my Volvo S80 for 7 years now, and can't rate them high enough. Jon always makes sure the work (if any) is always carried out, and Rob is a first rate mechanic who completes jobs quickly and expertly. (**UPDATE JULY 2025) Unfortunately, Gelders closed down at the biginning of the year and will be sadly missed.
Many years of great service on my many Volvos over the years. AB Gelders is now closed, I wish John a happy retirement. Thank you.
Had timing belt, full service and MOT for my S80. Service was friendly and very knowledgeable. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to keep their Volvo healthy.
Took my Volvo to get it diagnosed after another garage said it was beyond economical repair. Dropped it off in the afternoon and got a call the next morning saying it was fixed. Happy with the cost and the fellas there are true gents. Would recommend to anyone especially Volvo owners. 10/10 from me
Brilliant service, Rob took a look at the car, at short notice, diagnosed the problem and fixed it. We would have been really stuck without his help.
I bought an old Volvo that had very very low mileage. I took it to Gelders for the them to bring it back to life and sort everything out. They did and what a car! They suggested a cost and yep, the cost was true to their original quote, not a penny more. I just left them to it and picked it up when done!!! The Volvo is a dream car to drive and Rob the mechanic is a genius!!!! Just done a 400 mile trip in it and ran perfectly! Top top garage and top top people! A credit to their profession... Thank you Gelders.
They know their stuff - Timing Belt and water pump replaced on Skoda Octavia. Friendly, professional, high quality service. Brilliant job, thank you so much. Will definitely use again.
I've been using Gelders for three years now with my V50 after a friend's recommendation. Jon and Rob know Volvos inside out, I have absolutely no hesitation to recommend them - first class!
