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.
Agreed, especially since it was 4WD!

When I was thinking of what to buy for my budget (I considered many: Boxster, SLK, Golf/Polo GTI, Scirocco) I remembered there was a Volvo with a nice glass hatch that looked cool – didn't even know the name of it but that rear always stuck in my head!

kmb I pored over the images and I'm 99% sure the light switch looks like it's got that extra setting for this bending lights!

Agreed! They should have made even a limited run of the real Polestar version.
