How much is a 2011 Volvo C30 worth?
A 2011 Volvo C30 has a median retail value of $7,128, with most appraised between $5,861 and $7,648. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $700 across 8 recent sales — the middle 50% between $625 and $1,400.
Why is the 2011 Volvo C30 so cheap at auction?

For the 2011 Volvo C30 that gap runs about 10.2× — $7,128 retail against a $700 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
