1997 Saab 9000 2.3 Turbo CSE Hatchback 5dr Petrol Automatic (200 bhp) Hatchback Petrol Automatic

Description

What a rare car indeed! SAAB 9000 2.3 Petrol Turbo CSE Anniversary Edition Automatic (197 BHP) finished in Scarabe Green Metallic Coachwork with Twin Tone Mushroom and Cream Special Quality Leather Upholstery, and Burr Walnut Veneers. The Anniversary edition was to commemorate 50 years of SAAB production car sales. The car is incredibly original and stock in specification and it’s lovely to see an unmolested example. The only modifications I can see are the addition of a performance high capacity radiator and pipework, and removal of the air conditioning radiator and associated air conditioning componants. First and foremost, this SAAB drives superbly! It is still a very fast car indeed and will put most modern rubbish to shame. The gearbox is spot on with seamless gear changes and kick down. The steering is lovely and smooth with no play from the rack or suspension. The brakes are good, it tracks wonderfully with no pulling or wheel wobbling, it really is a fantastic car to drive. The interior fixtures and fittings are all in good shape, as are the carpets, door cards and roof lining. The upholstery overall is in great condition, with the usual wear and cracking to the leather in areas on the seats. That said, no horrible rips or tears along the seams or bolsters and still very presentable and comfortable. The all round electric windows and mirrors are fully working. The remote central locking is fully working. The stereo, speakers and electric aerial are fully working. The trip computer is fully working and the addition of precise engine temperature gauge is also working and mounted on the dashboard (this is in addition to the working temperature gauge in the instrument cluster). The interior lights on the instrument cluster and overhead are fully working, with no dashboard warning lights except a check radiator light on start up, which is presumably due to the radiator being upgraded for better cooling efficiency. A few items are not functional, these include the drivers seat height adjustment lever, the internal boot release button, and of course the air conditioning. The car keeps temperature around the low to mid 90s with no oil or water consumption. The bodywork is all there and complete with no rust showing. The paintwork is still bright and shiny with some car park dings and touch ins, commensurate with a 28 year old vehicle. It does however still sit very proud of itself indeed. The car would suit an enthusiast to either enjoy it as it is...
