I had a similar problem with the GLT.. the fuses on the 300 series are notoriously unreliable. It's probably a bad contact on the fuse for the ignition.
The injected versions have a little box with fuses for the fuelpump which tend to give problems all the time (which is where it went wrong on my car).
When you track down the fuse, clean the contacts, replace the fuse and maybe coat the contacts in some grease (this is what the volvo mechanics over here recommend). If it keeps going bad, solder in a more reliable type of fuseholder..
