VOLVO C30 (2009-13) 3DR SPORTS COUPE 1.6 100 SE

Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks

The VOLVO C30 (2009-13) 3DR SPORTS COUPE 1.6 100 SE is a compact three-door hatchback with a coupe-like profile, positioned as a premium alternative to mainstream small cars in the UK. Its distinctive glass tailgate and Scandinavian styling make it instantly recognisable. The 1.6 petrol SE prioritises everyday comfort over sporty performance. Mycarcheck.com recorded 92 look-ups covering 39 distinct VINs, giving a useful snapshot rather than a complete market picture. Across those checks, the average private-sale valuation was £2,300 and recorded mileage averaged 97,000 miles. Typical annual use was 11,000 miles, with about 3.3 previous keepers. This Volvo suits commuters, couples and drivers wanting a stylish, easy-to-place car, though rear access and space are less family-friendly than in a five-door hatchback. It competes with the Audi A3 and BMW 1 Series, offering distinctive design and a reassuring feel. For used-car buyers, check condition and service history, as with any older car.
