Anyone know what the exepected cost is?
Thanks in advance

$250 for a key? seems ridiculous.
Anyone feel this is reasonable?

WOW. According to my local dealership, the key is $93.55 and $160.00 to program it to the car.

Sounds like it's the key/remote combo going on, I don't know why they'd need to program just the key, since you said you already have a remote.
And 93.55 for a key? Jesus.

Did you have to order a coded key? It costs more if the key has to be ordered from Volvo. To copy an existing key is the cost of a blank + Software. It costs $200 for a new master and software @ The Volvo Store

Go to a different dealer. They have to cut the key and program the car to accept it.

dealers here are equipped to laser-cut keys...
The keys run about $70 retail, and then you need the car to program the key (due to the immobilizer), so you need a software download from Sweden (about $35), and then the labour required to download the software and program the key (about 15 mins)...

Local stealer just charged me $165 for new key (blank, cut and program) for a 2000 V70XC. This was for the key, not the remote. Really sucks, if you ask me, since nobody steals these cars anyhow.
