Today we present to you a 2009 Volvo C30 T5 R-Design named Sven.


Sven is a stick-shift, with a six-speed manual. Sven has also had a lot of maintenance and repair work done lately or by his previous owner -- you can see it all listed at the forum post.

There are 94,800 miles on Sven's odometer, so it he has the usual dents and dings that accrue with age, but otherwise Sven seems to be in good shape.

Our San-Francisco-based seller brought Sven home with the Premium Audio package, Bluetooth, and satellite radio capability.

You can take Sven home for $7,500. Click here for more.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

  • Lorenzo If it's over 30 years old and over 80k miles, and not a classic, it's a parts car, worth no more than 20% of original price.
  • Dusterdude No mileage noted on a 33 year old car means likely well north of 300k + miles , along with issues noted , should equate to an ask price of less than $3k
  • Ajla IMO, something like this really should be naturally-aspirated.
  • Kjhkjlhkjhkljh kljhjkhjklhkjh Unless they are solid state batteries you BAN THEM. I like EVs... but EVs like to burn ... for days
