Angry *Wanted* C30 T5 2008 Manual 230 (SE Sport preferable)

Long shot but I'm looking for a 2008 c30 T5, manual.

I owned one of these for the last 3 years (small picture in the footer but will throw some better ones up in the showroom), she was a beauty, ~80k on the clock, immaculate - until someone decided to slam in to the side of it around 6 weeks ago; it's now been deemed a total loss

Hence I'm on the lookout for another one.

I've got around £8k to play with - reward of 1 x Swedish flag sticker for anyone that can help me find one

Few nice ones on eBay, depends how far you're willing to travel for one though.

Can't help any further than FunkyMelon has done, but sorry to hear about the reason for your search - gutting when someone else wrecks your pride and joy!

I hope you find a good replacement soon

Cheers Funky

Not sure what I was expecting as a reply but I have seen the ones you've pulled out.

The grey interior of the 2008 puts me off. I'm considering the facelift but I do prefer the older shape.

Being a bit picky I guess but I reckon I'll hold out for a couple of months and see if anything else pops up, if not I'll probably go for the facelift.

Either way - love the T5 engine and nothing else is doing it for me at the minute.

Hey Junior,

No, I was the second owner, I bought it with 23,000 miles on the clock...

Although I loved the car and drove it more than many others I own, I just needed a bigger daily driver...although since selling, I've gone out and bought a D5 instead...just because I missed the little beasty...

RC
