Mr. Indecisive Posts: 8926 Location: Can-Nock | Just bought myself a Saab 93 turbo. Needed a bit more power in my life and this engine is 'apparently' pretty bomb proof. The rest of the car not so ! 77k, full history and a huge spec list. Haggled it down to £2,000 im pretty chuffed with the grandad barge (new.jpg) (new1.jpg) Attachments ---------------- new.jpg (52KB - 95 downloads) new1.jpg (44KB - 86 downloads) | ||

Are you used to where the key goes yet, I still forget at times! | ||

Elf eating dog breeder Posts: 10531 Location: Guildford | Utter bargain, being a later 9-3 it should have the fixed steering rack/bulkhead problem, looks very tidy for £2k! I miss mine, was such a nice car to drive, shame most performance parts were stupid money! (chassis wise) | ||

Mr. Indecisive Posts: 8926 Location: Can-Nock | My plate is going Mr P, AG52EGG, although not a deal decider my brother initials are MRA so he will be having that plate Ive always like the Cerbera, reading up engines just dont go wrong just a few gremlins here and there namely the central locking needs replacing on the front doors though thats the only 'issue' been a family car since new so no reason to not believe the chap. Looking on forums its very very common which sets my mind at ease. Picking it up in 30mins, only in Sutton so ill be bombing it home in an hour or so, only £40 extra for 6 months over my previous 1.4 C4 (barmy) ! Saying that im an old man now and a teacher so i tick all the 'good boy' boxes Edited by Gregg 29/5/2012 4:08 PM | ||

drive it like its hired | how are the seats for comfort, being full leather they look rather hard from behind this computer screen | ||
Gregg |

Mr. Indecisive Posts: 8926 Location: Can-Nock | Seats are excellent, they are very much in the middle in terms of being sports style and soft. They hug you but are not that firm, great seats in all honesty. From what i remeber the Metro GTI seats i used to have were a hell of a lot 'harder' 'firmer'. | ||

Mr. Indecisive Posts: 8926 Location: Can-Nock | its an '04' mate, on a private plate at the moment which now own. Its really tidy with the exception of the central locking which i reckon will be a few hundred quid to rectify as the door motors on 3 doors are packed up. | ||

Member Posts: 83 Location: Tonbridge, Kent | Great motor mate, I had a 52plate which was the first of this shape, 2.0 turbo with the aero style kit i ran it for just under 4 years averaging around 25k a year and it never missed a beat, nice and quick and super comfy to boot. | ||
