Well as some of you may know, i have had a new car! Its a 2010 Volvo C30 R Design. But unfortunatly my corsa had to be scrapped  very sad time for me, as it was my pride and joy! With it being my first car, and the money i spent on it, it was very close to me (very sad i know  ). Well here are some pics of how my corsa started out:
and this is how she ended up after 2 years of ownership.
my favourite picture of it!
Then my parents decided to give me a little prezzie for getting into uni. I also have to work one day a week for my step dad, and i get to drive around in this 
I do have plans for it (lowereing etc) but, as its a brand new car they will void the warrenty etc. But i will be having the wheels powdercoated just after christmas, not to sure what colour yet, ideas please!

Wooo! I think it looks great, so smart and really stands out and looks the part on the road.
Love the funky centre console too! and also the new car smell that smells like your in DFS due to all the leather

Well my mom and step dad had 2 brand new XC60's and when they were signing the docs for my moms, i sat in it and i just fell in love, and said i want one now , mom said when you get a 1st at uni then you can have one. But little to my knowledge when they went to pick up my moms car, they arranged the order for it etc. and told me when they got home.

yeah i was going to have the upgrade 18" wheels, but the 2010 r design has an optional extra of a lowered chassis, which mine has. its lowered with stiffer suspension then its has a lowered chassis on top of that, and the wheels dont fit due to its being a different chassis. yeah the T5 and D5 have the twin exhausts.
