The Volvo C30 is intended to be a rival to premium hatches like the BMW 1-Series and Audi A3.
The C30 is only available with three doors and four seats, making it less practical than many rivals.
The interior is classic Volvo, with the trademark floating centre console.
The Volvo C30 has a bold rear design, with a big glass tailgate and vertical light clusters.
Following the launch of the V40 in 2012, the C30's lineup has been reduced to just two engines and two trims.
The rear seats in the C30 are cramped, and access is awkward.
The C30's boot is a decent size but the sill is very high, the opening small and the load cover is very fiddly to use.
