Stealthier cousin to the Focus ST. Probably a bit more refined than the Ford as well. A pity Volvo stopped making these engines, they are full of character and full of tuning potential, not to mention they can take the miles. Current Volvos won't last half as long as these old 5-cyl ones did.
These are so cheap here in aus, im thinking of buying one as a daily/secondary car. Found one with 116k km for $7500. How reliable are they? I've got a giulia qv and my daily right now is a 300k km 1998 ford laser that's on it's last legs, so need something ''cheap'' and reliable. Originally wanted to spend no more than $5k but for $7500, these looks like a nice, and FUN daily!

Those 5 cylinders sound so good. I had a Mondeo with the same motor. They have so much potential. They have so much torque!
Are they reliable??
Very
I sold my 2007 T5 to my stepdaughter last week.
Also added a step1 uppgrade to it (261hp and 381 NM ) as a present.
That is a great present 😀🚀

I want one!!!
Was it a full throttle run? Expected a better time. The gear changes looked spot on.
It was, but a good 0-100 is quite hard with FWD.
@@BehindtheWheelNL sorry, my fault. I was talking about the 100-200.
Ah yes, I had to shift later to 5th gear, it cost some time haha
What tune?
I wish my S40 1.6 was fast like this... but actually, i like that me faster than a Skoda Rapid 1.4 TSI :0
I have a 2012 2.4i N/A 5 cyl ... Is this worth tuning? I want a little more punch because it sounds so good...
You get around 190 hp, so if you got the 140 hp version yes.
I have C30 T5 stage 2 with 320 hp/550nm
With what mods?

Yes I have a c30 t5 manual in aus no issues 6 months in
Intercooler stock? Nice video, great performance.
Yes, stock intercooler
Can you film alfa romeo 147 1.6 twin spark 120hp
Not to bad tad quicker then my 2009 xc60 t6 with 315hp and 480nm.
Does this have six gears?
Yes
@@BehindtheWheelNL Very nice. I drive a t5 v50 auto but would love the manual.
Why did you stop at only 210km/h?
This video only shows 0-100 and 100-200. There is another video on our channel with top speed
Why is mine an automatic?!
Turn off the heated seats, quicker acceleration.😃
