This 2012 Volvo C30 T5 R-Design was specified in Orange Flame Metallic and with the Platinum and Climate Packages, which together added a glass sunroof, a Premium sound system, GPS navigation with real-time traffic, and heated power-adjustable front seats trimmed in Offblack premium leather and Flextech. It was further optioned with adaptive xenon headlights, keyless drive, and the Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) along with an R-Design-specific lower body kit, sport-tuned suspension, and 18″ Midir wheels. Power is provided by a turbocharged 2.5-liter inline-five paired with a six-speed manual transaxle. The car was first registered in Washington state, later spending time in California until it was acquired by the seller on BaT in February 2024 and relocated to Wisconsin. The spark plugs were replaced in 2023, while work under current ownership involved replacing the timing belt, water pump, and tires. Now with under 76k miles, this C30 is offered at no reserve with 2024-2025 service records, a car cover, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Wisconsin title in the seller’s name.
The car is finished in Orange Flame Metallic (701) and features an R-Design body kit, rear spoiler, matte chrome-finish mirror covers, and 3.5″ polished exhaust outlets. Active bending xenon headlights, LED daytime running lights, prancing moose fender decals, and a glass sunroof are additional elements. Scratches on the rear wheel arches and bumper were refinished before the seller’s acquisition. The seller tells us that a portion of the chips in the windshield were filled and the wiper blades were replaced under current ownership. Scrapes are noted on the bottom of the front bumper cover.
Midir 18″ R-Design alloy wheels are wrapped in three 215/45 Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus tires that were installed in February 2024. The car is equipped with an independent suspension and Dynamic Stability Traction Control (DSTC), and stopping power is provided by ventilated front and solid rear discs. R-Design examples also feature mono-tube dampers, stiffer suspension, and a quicker steering rack in comparison to other C30 models. An alignment was performed when the tires were installed.
The heated and power-adjustable front seats are trimmed in Offblack premium leather and Flextech upholstery, and aluminum trim accents the cabin, which has automatic climate control, navigation, a Bluetooth hands-free system, a ten-speaker premium sound system with a 650-watt amplifier, and a CD stereo with a USB port.
The multifunction leather-wrapped steering wheel frames blue-dial instruments, and the driver is aided by keyless drive and a blind-spot monitoring system. The digital odometer indicates under 76k miles, approximately 700 of which were added under current ownership.
Factory rated at 227 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque, the turbocharged 2.5-liter inline-five sends power to the front wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle. The spark plugs were replaced in October 2023, and work following the seller’s acquisition in 2024 included replacing the timing belt and water pump along with a coolant change. The oil was changed in February 2025.
