Valentine Volvo has been in business for something like 50 years, although only a few years at the fancy new location. They have plans to open a second dealership in the NW part of the city. Would seem they are doing well.
Centaur Motors on McLeod Tr. used to sell Volvos - I was not impressed with them on the couple of times I went for parts or service. They are now selling Subaru.
I have always had good service from Valentine. Yep, expensive - just like any dealership with the big inventory of parts and special tools and factory trained mechanics. But they've always fixed my problem, fixed it the first time, and fixed it right 'cause I've never had to go back. And that's worth something. Of course, YMMV.
I've had pretty good work from Bert and Jack's, but that's on the RWD cars, so I don't know how good they may be on the newer FWD stuff.
I too, lived in the US for a while. Enjoyed the experience - and the California weather! - but quite happy to be back in Calgary. Welcome home.
