Seller submission from Frank who writes: I need to get this out of the way, and there must be some DT reader who can use it. It’s conveniently located right in the middle of the county, which should be about the same distance from either coast, where anyone who would want such a thing will be located. Find this 2009 Volvo C30 offered for $5,495 in McPherson, KS via craigslist.

Here is a very nice 2009 Volvo C30 in a deep green color. I have been driving this for the past four years and have put just under 100k on it. The car has been excellent, but it’s time to move on to the next thing.

This has the 2.5L 5cyl turbo motor that makes about 220hp. The car is surprisingly fast, and is a very comfortable road trip car for two people and your stuff. I added trailer hitch to use with a bike rack.
It’s just been detailed and is ready for the new owner. Clean and clear title in my name. I have the current CarFax available upon request, as well as several oil analysis reports during my ownership. Michelin Pilot Sport AS3+ tires have good life remaining. Includes owners manual and two keys.
Car is currently stored in our off-site warehouse and is not being driven.
Please note the following:
This is an in-person cash sale only.
I am not seeking any trades.
I do not need any help selling this car.

The Clarkson review is worth a read, if you ever had any interest in one of these. TLDR: Four wheels and a seat, with a good-looking back window.
