We used to have the HOT Aero estate, I loved it but I'm not sure our Labrador was quite as keen... Still prefer the 9-5 3.0 V6 we had before though.

Wish I still had the v50.
Awd.. d5.. top spec with the premium sound and all the gadgets. 18inc alloys and a stability control that allowed you to drive at top whack, round a roundabout, get the light flashing, and sail round like it's on rails...

You've had it a very long time now. Must be on a lot of miles.. how's the beard going?
I've had a p2 v70 t5 before, hoping this is half decent. Not going to track this one.

Pretty common knowledge that I dislike modern cars but I have a lot of time for these things, they are quite different to their rivals and have some really cool features. Makes me quite fancy an old 480

RE: Volvo C30 D4 (now mapped) - Anton - 20-01-2015
Afternoon,
Got this mapped just before Christmas by Shark Performance. I wanted it dynoed before and after too, it made 180bhp and 417nm, now 207bhp and 467nm. Pretty happy with it, wasn't a slouch to start with. Its still just my daily that I've put 13k miles on since June. Mpg has increased a bit, maybe 5-10%. It really needs some wider wheels, you simply can't put your foot down unless you're going in a straight line in the dry, even then second still slips.
Pretty happy with it tbh
RE: Volvo C30 D4 (now mapped) - C.A.R. - 20-01-2015
Happy days. Has the boot hatch proved problematic yet? These are lovely cars but that's the one thing that I think makes them a bit prohibitive to a lot of buyers, I don't think you could get much in there if you had a small family.
RE: Volvo C30 D4 (now mapped) - Anton - 20-01-2015
For me, no it hasn't proved to be a problem. The rear seats fold completely flat so that does come in handy if needed. I wouldn't recommend having one if you had a family to be honest, not that kind of car. It does however seat four adults in comfort which is rare these days, let alone from a two door coupe.

Shame about the lack of speaker on the dashboard though, the map really hasn't sorted that out

yeah, dunno why he didn't just go for the stage 2+ that includes the +5bhp dashboard speaker pack ...
RE: Volvo C30 D4 (now mapped) - Piggy - 20-01-2015
Haha!
Its a beast of a thing. Maybe it will be faster than a bus now

Pictures needed! What did it set you back?
RE: Volvo C30 D4 (now mapped) - Anton - 20-01-2015
Piggy i think you'd be quite surprised to be honest, not saying its fast by all means but not bad. I know 207bhp doesn't sound alot...
RE: Volvo C30 D4 (now mapped) - zx_volcane - 20-01-2015
This car does shift some, has torque for miles and miles
RE: Volvo C30 D4 (now mapped) - Piggy - 20-01-2015
Pulling ya leg ya pleb.
Still a hefalump
RE: Volvo C30 D4 (now mapped) - procta - 21-01-2015
I bet it moves! what engine size is this one? as they do a 2.4 diesel if I am right?

2.0 5cyl 20v. They do a 2.4 5cyl 20v, but much worse on fuel and an older design.

C30 is a 2.0 16v 4 pot pug diesel isn't it?
WAAAAAAAT!!!
wiki says there's a 5 pot 2.0 from 2010 on, bet that sounds decent.

Hahaha up until about 2010 is has that engine, then for one year only they put a destroked D5 engine in. So its as Ruan said, a 2.0 5 pot. Yeah does sound better than a normal 4 pot derv.
