Volvo C30 T5

[burn]

Volvo is apparently refreshing this platform soon. Might be worthwhile waiting.

I bought a 2008 C30 T5 R Design .... absolutely love the car.

Safe, smooth, quick, looks good, well specced and well priced

how are your maintenance costs on this vehicle?

 

[Dolby]

I sold each before I had to pay actually. Just bought my 3rd one with a maintaince plan to 2019.

I'm a little wary of a BMW, Merc, Audi or Volvo out of plan. Heard a few horror stories

EDIT : I see thread is a little old. I traded that blue 2008 model for a 2012 C30 T5 R Design facelift and just got a 2014 V40 D3 R Design. If I had kept it out of plan, I'd have taken it to a place called Swedish Auto ... All the guys seem to

 

[GouKi]

yes, that is the the way I see it too. Can't have one of these cars out of motor plan. thanks for the info

Old threat revival - would be curious to know from those who have one, or who bought one what their experiences have been like thus far. Especially those who indicated in this thread that they are looking to get one.

I've found a 2010 R Design with just over 120 000km's selling for R120k.

Too much?
Good or bad deal?

For a Volvo, it is too much.

Seems to be a good deal, couldn't find one with that mileage and price. The rest are all low mileage and run into the R160 000's
