front drivers side wing looks like a bad colour match to me... maybe nothing but I suspect it's had some paint for something.

Wanted to attract you to one of irish adverts for a very nice 5pot petrol Volvo, very low mileage, nicely kept, not very old and with a LOT of boot space, but I guess its too late now?...

It's running some impressive rear camber too, bet it's good in the corners haha

Aaaaaaand it's gone! Chap came down from Brum last night, loved it, took it there and then. Hopefully he holds on to it for a while although he seems to go through cars very quickly!

And typically another guy that viewed it at the weekend messaged less than an hour after it had gone confirming a price and that he wanted to collect this Saturday...

Think it got more interest as the month went on so it proves that early Jan isn't the best time to sell a car!

I'll miss it for sure, they are such great cars and I think the T5 unit is a great engine (especially once it has an exhaust on it

)

Glad to hear you had good interest and it sold without any further hassle!

Oooh good spot FM! Yes that's my old car. Always a little sad to see a former car up for sale again... I actually spoke to the owner just last week and he said he was getting itchy feet, and he does go through cars very quickly. Looks like he ended the sale so no idea if it did sell or not. I'd have put it on Autotrader personally. Plenty of people are after a facelift C30 T5 from what I can tell so that should sell well as it's in great nick with a half decent spec, but depends if someone wants it bone stock or modified I guess.

EDIT In the listing he forgot to include the all important USB port in it too for streaming music

OK it did indeed sell! Seller had 3 people interested even though he was just testing the water, in the end a guy where he works bought it. Says he's unsure if he was right to sell it but had no regrets about owning it. Doesn't know what to get next though!

Block mod and mapped - Good buy for someone after a well sorted C30
