This 2013 Volvo C30 T5 R-Design is a Premier Plus example that was ordered with the Climate package and remained registered with a single owner in Oregon from new until 2023, and it was acquired by the seller on BaT in March 2023. Subsequent service involved replacing the timing belt, auxiliary drive belt, and their respective idlers and tensioners as well as installing a replacement air-conditioning compressor. Powered by a turbocharged 2.5-liter inline-five paired with a six-speed manual transaxle, the car is finished in Titanium Gray Metallic over black leather and Flextech upholstery. It also features a sunroof, an R-Design body kit, a rear spoiler, active xenon headlights, an R-Design sport suspension, anti-lock disc brakes, 18″ R-Design alloy wheels, automatic climate control, heated and power-adjustable front seats, a CD stereo with auxiliary inputs, and a Bluetooth phone interface. This C30 has 99k miles and is offered at no reserve with a window sticker, factory literature, service records, a Carfax report, and a Tennessee title in the seller’s name.
The car is finished in Titanium Gray Metallic (455) and features an R-Design body kit, rear spoiler, and badges. The Premier Plus package added a power-operated glass sunroof, active xenon headlights, and LED daytime running lights, while additional exterior elements include a rear window wiper, fog lights, and polished exhaust finishers. The Carfax report indicates that damage occurred to the car in April 2014, and the rear bumper cover was subsequently refinished. Scuffs and paint chips are noted on the front bumper cover, and photos of blemishes are presented in the gallery below.
Five-spoke 18″ R-Design wheels were reportedly refinished under previous ownership and are wrapped in 215/45 Bridgestone Potenza tires with production date codes from 2021. The car rides on a sport suspension with front and rear stabilizer bars as well as Dynamic Stability and Traction Control (DSTC). R-Design examples also feature mono-tube dampers, stiffer springs, and a quicker steering rack in comparison to other C30 models. Stopping power is provided by anti-lock disc brakes with Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) and Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD). A February 2023 invoice indicates that the front and rear brake rotors will need to be replaced soon.
The heated and power-adjustable front seats and the rear bench seat are trimmed in black leather and Flextech upholstery, and they are accompanied by a color-coordinated dashboard, center console, and door panels. Appointments include automatic climate control, cruise control, driver-seat position memory, a soft cargo area cover, R-Design aluminum pedal covers, a CD stereo with auxiliary inputs, and a Bluetooth hands-free interface. The driver-side seat motor was repaired in October 2023, and the seller notes that the air-conditioning compressor was replaced in 2025. A blemish is noted on the driver’s seat.
The multifunction leather-wrapped steering wheel fronts blue-dial instrumentation including a 160-mph speedometer and an 8k-rpm tachometer as well as inset gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The digital odometer indicates 99k miles, approximately 22k of which were added by the seller.
The turbocharged 2.5-liter inline-five produced 227 horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque when new, and it drives the front wheels through a six-speed manual transaxle. The timing belt and the auxiliary drive belt were replaced in October 2023 along with their respective tensioner and idler pulleys.
