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!

But I can't because it's bad enough getting 36mpg out of my V50!

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. |

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!

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!

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.
