Where if we were not going to be with this Swedish that it comes to compete with Golf GTI, it could not be another site that in the snow. In the photos changes with respect to the Volvo C30 presented/displayed in </SPAN>the hall Detroit cannot be appreciated, because as it is possible to be seen, they take it well tapadito.

Compact </SPAN>MPH affirm that it will share platform with the European of Ford, like Mazda 3, the European Focus or the Volvo S40. The spied on </SPAN>C30 equips a motor of diesel engine of 136 CV, and this is said that to Volvo studying the inclusion within the range of motors that will mount a hybrid motor.

There is one thing that I cannot stand about Volvo, VW, and many others manufactures that do the samething over and over again.

I am sorry but I have to complain. I hate DAYLIGHT RUNNING LIGHTS! I JUST HATE THEM!

Why can't they stop making it a mandatory thing! I don't want to buy a Volvo because of it so change it! Now!

Um, you can shut them off you know?

I hate to say it, but this car bores me. It's yet anther variation on the S40 theme(new C70 included).

True the car looks bland, but that first post original front picture was really sharp, that last spy pic photo makes me want to vomit on the C30.

Black cladding is so old school now. W/ this car attempting to be a statement for the young and fashion conscious, you'd think they'd know better. Volvo has a bad habit of not judging consumer taste well unfortuantely. Take for instance the S60R, pitched as a high performance sports sedan for around $38k+, when in reality it's no better than the 2.5T model that goes for another $8k -. So if you're going to buy one, get an S60R 6MT, but why do that when you can get a second hand C32 or M3 for similar money?

You can't shut them off completly. In the Volvo you can go into parking lights but that doesn't turn off everything in the healight unit which is what I am talking about. So if you are trying to give the impression that your car is not on then you will have no luck. However, on the VW's if you are in Park and you pull the e-break a little up the daylight running lights will turn off.

Trust me I have investigated the issue.
