1995 2.3 FPT Saab 9000 - with pics now!

[tigran]

As that confusing title states - my '95 Full Pressure Turbo 9000 is up for grabs. It's the 2.3 as well so full 200bhp when it left the factory.

Goes like absolute stink - even though it does have a smooth shiftin, nicely working 4 spd auto.

The car has done about 170,000 which for a 9000 is nothing tbh - my other one is on 217 and going strong. It has about 11 months mot and 5 months tax. Passed MOT with no advisories.

Sand (light grey) leather interior, in really good nick. Electric front seats, all electric windows, trip computer, tape deck/radio with a 10 disc changer in the boot.

Some bad bits - the a/c isn't working - the compressor seized up and snapped the aux belt. I got saab to put a non a/c belt on as I didn't have the wonga at the time for a new one. Also the bonnet cable has snapped - so there is currently no grille (had to take grille out as was getting tired of faffing about every time I wanted to open bonnet). Also The exhaust has grenaded itself - so it's pretty damn loud to drive (but drive it you can). middle box and rear box are past their best and the downpipe has cracked.

I will get some pics up when i'm back in bournemouth with the car, if anyone wants em.

Looking for £300 for it.

Oh forgot to add - it has the Trionic ECU, and a big intercooler already. So prime candidate for receiving a healthy dollop of extra boost.

[mrzee]

curse word it, how come every time the perfect car comes along its too god dam far away. Arrrrggghhh!

[dclane]

Pics please, although SWMBO would probably ask "why do you need another one?"

[tigran]

i'll stick some pics up when i'm back in bournemouth with the car, trunk - the car can be up in potters bar or even in buckinghamshire j13 of M1, if that's of any help.

[tigran]

Right, i'll stick some pics up tomorrow, but for now, get oooop there man!

[tigran]

the business end

[dclane]

I've got to say that it's a good price.

What's worse - it looks just like mine!

[tigran]

bump-age

[tigran]

Another quick pic, will get a video of what the exhaust is like uploaded later tonight.



Mmmmm, memory electric leather. On another had a poke about with the exhaust, and it looks like the major borked-ness comes from a split flexi pipe, there's also a couple of holes where the pipes meet the silencers. Like i said, will get pics and videos of that stuff up tonight.

[tigran]

Oh pic of the flexi pipe, you can see where the flange (f'nar is not all that together anymore and the mesh is all split at the bottom);

[tigran]

Up it goes.

Lovely cars
I wish I wasn't skint

Good luck with the sale these full pressure turbo ones are great cars make good all round mile munchers and B road blasters with a little suspension work

[tigran]

Up you go saab.

[dclane]

Can I suggest you stick it on the UK Saabs forum - they'll bite your hand off at that price (probably).

[tigran]

Yeah I for some, stoopid reason didn't do that. I'm a member as well.

[tigran]

Back up it goes.

[MiniDan]

Is it black?

How much of a hurry are you to sell?

If you don't mind waiting till I find out whats happening with my BMW, I'll have it off you.

[tigran]

Nah it's really really dark green. It's been up for a while, so i'm sure a little longer won't hurt.

[MiniDan]

Couldn't tell from the pictures.

Superb!
