C30 T5 Polestar-tuned Rebel Blue unicorn anyone??
 
Have to say, the trader doesn't know much about these cars and the price isn't exactly bad either... looks a really good example and bar a sunroof is fully loaded! kmb this is your blue twin! :teeth_smile:

If I could have a C30, this would be it, simply stunning!
But I can't because it's bad enough getting 36mpg out of my V50! :laughing-smiley-003

In the right colour, the C30 really does look stunning.

My housemate has a rare "Hello Yellow" R-design and when clean it looks fantastic.

As does the burnt orange/copper colour.

Polestar blue is a bit too "Mk3 focus RS" for my liking.

A mate had an orange one briefly, I thought it was a fantastic colour.

I think if I go back to last year when I knew nothing of Volvos/Polestar – and didn't know that Rebel Blue is the desirable Polestar colour – I'd have gone for white over blue as on it's own RB isn't a great colour to my eyes, but with its association with Polestar/performance then today I'd definitely have it over white! :teeth_smile:

Good spec there and I love the colour, actually same mileage as mine too - I'm not splitting up our white twins though :omg_smile::cool:

Mine too! Especially white with the privacy glass looks quite menacing from the rear I think.

I've stopped coveting the fancy Polestar colour one now, I don't think it's got my adaptive cornering Xenons haha! :tounge_smile:

They are bit of a marmite car, personally I love them.

The one in the ad above though is just a C30 in rebel blue with some kit and a polestar map, which is pretty poor value compared to MTE/Shark options.

What would be special is if Volvo had actually released the proper 400hp C30 Polestar, such a wasted opportunity on their part.
