Yeah, I completely agree with the reliability. When i was asking a couple of mechanic friends about it they both replied with 1 word messages. Bulletproof. I dont really like the word and always take it with a pinch of salt but it really is a good way to describe this car. Few scratches and dents on it, none from my time driving it, but to be expected on a car that old. I'll happily stay driving it until it blows up.

Also, same with the dogs but sure an aul Hoover now and then is grand lol. We use the missus Xsara, also found on here, if we are going anywhere remotely respectable.

brilliant cars but ****e brakes

Saab 95

Would love to have my Saab 9-5 in black! Milage is only maybe 10k higher than mine is now.

Don't see mention of heated seats, though, nor do I see the symbol of the button on the rightmost button just above the cigarette lighter.

iwillhtfu · 03-03-2021 8:35am

There seems to be an alarm or immobiliser issue aswell reading the message on the dash.

Common fault at that age. Requires soldering a replacement capacitor into the alarm unit behind the wheel arch. Power drops in the old capacitor can cause the alarm failure message. The other option is to code the alarm out with the tech II software. Or just ignoring it can work fine too.
Wouldn't put me off of the car checks out and that one looks well kept.

What's confrontational about querying an ad with 3 pictures?
Anybody can write anything in an ad, as we all know with cars of that age and particularly that mileage condition is everything, hard to judge a cars condition with 3 pictures the seller doesn't even bother to show the alloys the car will be sold with.
It has been said here time and time again by many on this thread about timing belt changes, tippex etc.

LOL! Yeah, that's mine. It's the fixer upper I picked up a year ago and driving since. I've been meaning to punt it on but restrictions mean very limited market. Open to offers.

Apologies for terrible ad. It's only on adverts because donedeal offered it for free. Then exported the ad with miles/kms mixed up!

A bit left field and a bit pricey for something with a very short NCT. But you won't get anything as comfy in that price bracket.

I’d love that.

It’s the old 1.9 (pre HDI) engine but unfortunately still gets taxed as 2.0 as its 1905cc.

Hate seeing Saabs or Volvos without heated seats, seems to be an Irish spec thing.

Toyotafanboi · 05-03-2021 1:48pm

Looks very tidy and there's a nice bit of nostalgia to it but IMO, the NCT disc expire din January, there's only 2 months covid extension left, needs the sills welded and the airbag light is on so it's already a guaranteed fail and the clutch is on it's last legs.

He's need to drop the 1 off of the start of the asking price to make it any way enticing. Fixer-upper, not a bangernomic that Citroen.

That’s a cool find. It’s a pity the bodywork isn’t tidier because that’s the nicest colour for them.

I’m fairly certain that steering wheel isn’t original though. Looks like it’s off an older Corolla

selectamatic · 05-03-2021 5:57pm

Looks a bit like an ep80 starlet steering wheel. Or the one that came in them windy ii corolla's.

colm_mcm · 05-03-2021 10:42pm

Did the Corollas have an airbag at that stage? I don’t think so, but it’s odd that you’d swap to that wheel.

I think on that model it was usually strapped into the front passenger seat telling you to slow down for the love of God.

Toyotafanboi · 05-03-2021 11:37pm

The non airbag wheel was a 3 spoke, i think they had a drivers airbag from 96 on and that was a 4 spoke wheel.

That wheel looks like it's from an e90, the previous model.

Saab 93 Convertible, NCT 08/21. Manual, love it or loath it. Great value IMO at €1,500. These have bottomed out in price, will either stay stable or increase. Not as desirable as it's predecessor, but this one is a good mix of old school and a modern driver. I have one of these as a 5-door and they're very capable cars.

It's a rather unique sales pitch in fairness to increase the price of a car by 50% whilst at the same time not including the wheels in the newly increased price.

I wish the new owner the very best of luck.

I think that is the old price and he lowered it to 1500.
