LOL. I got this e-mail from an INDIAN bloke trying to sell me his 2007 Volvo C30. Funny stuff.

Volvo C30 model of the Volvo cars was first exhibited during the 2006 Detroit show. Since the debut of the car, the enthusiasts of cars seem interested in the smallest car by Volvo. With a length of 167 inches, it uses a 5-cylinder turbo charged engine of 2.5 litre capacity.

Volvo Cars first decide what the demands of the market and then starts designing and building the cars so much so that they really appeal to the targeted market. With the younger people as a target audience in mind, Volvo cars have sent the Volvo C30 model into the market. This new car targeted at the youth market is available with trademark Volvo framework, and there is certainly no mistake in that.

The model comes using Volvo transmission mount, providing an even enhanced performance and riding experience. When we look into the interior of the vehicle, we notice that the dash board is very much alike that of Volvo S40. The car’s centre console is quite slim and its design shows of minimalism. The wheels are of four different decorations of the alloy, the exterior body kits are also available in four colours, the centre console is available in two designs and there are also two options for the inlay of the door panels.

A brand new Volvo V70 Police Car today — launched at Stockholms police conference just a couple weeks ago…

I’m assuming this is the 185bhp version but according to people at Volvo “next year will see the introduction of the new 200 hp 2.5 FT Flexi-fuel (E85) version as an environmentally optimised option for the police.”
