C30 T5 sport

[corvettedave]

Just purchased a 07 c30 t5 sport,(my wifes new car!), used to have a S60R, but Iam back again with the volvo's, couldnt keep away, the c30 looks really good in its sport/r design trim, went for the auto version, just enjoy the auto driving, less hard work
got one that looks like this, will get some photo's up, pick up car mid week, looking forward to the volvo t5 again


cheers

I agree, and the badge seems HUGE!

The Grille on the New model is pretty big - looks a little like it's outta breath

Looks cool - I like the punchiness of the smaller turbo.

Agreed, but the wee turbo gets quite breathless above 5000 without all the mods on

that turbo might be small, but by god it sucks the fuel big time, just as bad as my s60r!

Hi Corvette Dave - you run a C30 around glasgow? I'll keep an eye out for you.

Mine isn't too bad - get 30+ to the gallon most of the time - I drive like a granny tho for the most part.

Dave, what ever happened to your Vette. Did you get it on the road yet .

P.s. like the C30, should paint it flash green though, like a mini "R"

Hi jase, the vette is on the road, been mot'ed for the last 2 years, I sorn in the winter months, just got it taxed the other day ready for the summer months, rebuilt the entire suspension and driveline over the winter, still need interior and paintwork to do tho, your welcome to come up anytime too see it or we should get another volvo meet sorted for the falkirk wheel, cant take vette too far, it is terrible on fuel, 10mpg at best, filled it up last week, it took £100 quid to fill it with v power, it does have a 90 L tank tho!

enjoying the volvo drive again, great engine

cheers
