Info about the R-Design:
Quote:
The R-Design spec can be added to Sport and SE Sport variants, and consists of a bodykit, a roof spoiler, new alloy wheels and unique badging. There’s also leather trim for the cabin and a host of other tweaks to the interior, including alloy pedals.

Viewed for the first time, it looks smart – and that feeling continues inside. The thickly padded sports seats are covered in two-tone cream and black leather, with the steering wheel also wrapped in hide. The centre console is made from aluminium with a carbon fibre-effect finish.

The instruments now have blue backing, and the floor mats get cream leather seams. Plus, there are R-Design badges on the wheel and seats. Fit and finish is superb throughout, and although the two-tone seats are a matter of taste, the R-Design package brings some handsome updates for the C30. More importantly, it’s in keeping with Volvo’s subtle image.

So, the R-Design just adds a few extras at a bargain price.
There's a large list of engines too! The D5 is both economical and powerful. The T5 is quick...
