Awesomeness
This is my 5th c30 and iam addicted. The t5 us in a world of its own and offers a level of performance, comfort and quality more akin to a 40k car! Wish I went for the lux version for the full "spoilt kid package", but this one still ticks the boxes The 2.5 litre 5 cylinder petrol turbo engine pulls like a train, smooth, sounds like a fake v10 and with the current setup iam running makes for an excellent daily, motorway cruiser, and a twisty road terror. Mapped to stage 2 with induction kit, cat back miltek and 328 bhp, I still get 30's at 68mph! If boot space really matters to you over exclusivity then buy a vag product and endure the rat race off the next set of lights!
