Does it share anything with the Focus?

ScoobyJawa 21 March 2007 05:54 PM

engine and chasis!

Andy M3 21 March 2007 05:56 PM

The C30 is mondeo chasis if anything. they don't look too bad to me :)

And the engines are all Volvo

IVe read some reports about the C30T5 and it is the same engine and running gear as the Focus RS, but not as good a drivers car though.

I was at a Volvo dealer on Saturday and they had one in with the styling kit. Looks awesome

Focus ST, not RS.

Interior in the Volvo is very smart. I like the floating centre console.

I like it too

Especially in this colour/wheel combination

However, thats a T5 SE Sport, and with Xenons and Decent Hi fi (but no integrated sat nav) it is nearly £26,000 OTR.

Audi S3 money that is, and the audi is the king of premium hot hatches

Oh yeah silly me! It is still the same engine used in the ST though......

I really like (not that I am Volvo biased like AL is for Audi ;) ) & I see that there is a D5 version, although currently only available with the 5sp auto.

Now when they drop in the 6sp manual and I take it up to RICA UK - TUNING for VOLVOS - Specialists in Performance Tuning for Volvo Cars for 210bhp/300+ ft/lb then any old S3 can go eat dust :D

AudiLover 25 March 2007 10:16 PM

Keyword being "old S3" :D
