About us.

The Volvo Owners Club has been around since 1962 so we know about the Volvo brand, its heritage and why they earned the reputation for safety and longevity.

Our name, experience and reputation and the Volvo brand are the reasons we have around 3000 members. Although Volvo cars earned the reputation of longevity, it is possibly the experience, dedication and expert advice from the Club and members that has helped preserve the old models that are still often used daily, and now apply for the more recent and newer models.

Times are changing and the technology in cars is very sophisticated. Air conditioning, electronics and turbos are now common in many of the newer models, and their numbers in the Club are growing. The newer and younger members now have these cars that are less than 10 years old and affordable. We even have the more recent models such as the new sporty Volvo S40 and S60, V60 and XC60 range.

Regardless of your choice of Volvo model, we're sure you'll find something for your needs within our Club services today.

And much more.

Volvo Owners' Club member Shell fuel discount app.

This is a new member discount we have been offered by Shell for UK members. Emails have gone out to UK members on how to obtain this discount on diesel and petrol. If you did not receive the email then either we do not have it or the one you gave was wrong or no longer exists. Make sure the app has the VOC logo, if not it is the wrong one. Uninstall it and click the download link again.

The Volvo Owners' Club has a YouTube Channel that we want to build up so we welcome members sending us Volvo car related videos to add.

Membership - new members and renewals.

Our membership is managed by the MG Owners' Club which has a dedicated admin team that handles their own and our membership. As part of the safety measures during this time the team now work from home, so online renewals and new applications will continue to be processed promptly. New members will have their membership number sent to them by email should that be required for any reason. There may be a delay with new membership packs and renewed membership cards arriving as the admin team will only visit the office once a week to send out the documents. This means postal applications may take a little longer.

The office phone number will still be answered as the calls are redirected. Please only call during week days. The membership email address will still be operative and is also copied to two of the club directors so we will be able to deal quickly with enquiries.
