Saab 9-3 2001

Beautiful SAAB 9-3 SE 2.0 turbo convertible for sale - one of the better ones in the country. Manual transmission. Only 108k miles. Bought from Saab specialist Stuee Mason in 2021 - has since been maintained and improved by Saab Wisdom in Bray. Fresh NCT to Aug 2027, ready to go... THE GOOD... NCTd a few weeks ago - valid to August 2027. Super smooth engine, with Noobtune Stage 1 remap to 218BHP. Underbody just rustproofed by SAAB Wisdom - see pics Excellent bodywork, leather seats, walnut dash etc. Cheap insurance. Starts first time, every time. Steering rack brace, turbo, clutch, and sump drop around 90k by Stuee Mason. Electric roof works as it should, with no leaks. New heated rear window. Refurbished multi-spoke alloys. Regularly serviced by SAAB Wisdom, lots of receipts - all the usual stuff like brakes, battery, exhaust, oil changes etc have been looked after, plus rear engine mount, crank position sensor, ignition cassette pack. I'm an old guy (retired) so it has only had light use over the past five years, about 4k per annum. TO BE TOTALLY HONEST... Lacquer on front bumper is cracked, and there's a scrape on front lower valance. SID display is pixellated. It can be replaced if you find a good one, or there are repair guides on YouTube. New Saab aerial supplied, just never got around to it because the radio works pretty well without it. CD player and speakers are fine. Roof has two small repairs at rear- they were there when I got it, and they do not leak. Overall, with a bit more TLC this could be a show car - but it's fine as is as a daily driver, and gets lots of looks and nice comments. I've owned and loved this beauty for five years, but it's time for a change - plus I've inherited another car. Can be viewed in Bray, Co Wicklow. First to see will buy etc...
