Saab 9-5, 1999, Oulu

A tidy Saab 9-5 Griffin for its age. The car is very pleasant to drive and offers Saab’s familiar comfort and quality feel.

The car has now been standing in a shelter since winter, so the battery may at least need attention. It is also very dusty at the moment. The old Saab may of course have developed something else in that time. It did start with a booster on 3.7., but that’s all one can promise from such an inexpensive old car 🤣 No warranty on functionality either. Earlier in winter it did something where it would not start when warm until it had cooled down; the crankshaft position sensor was replaced, but the car was only driven back to the shelter afterwards, so there is no certainty whether the fault has been fixed, so the buyer must be aware of this. It may be perfectly OK, or it may still need investigation.

It has gathered mileage, but the condition and driving feel do not really reveal it.

The car was originally brought from Italy, which is reflected in the equipment – this example has the rarer front seat ventilation (instead of seat heaters).

Also includes e.g.:

- Harman Kardon audio

- Leather interior

- Electrically adjustable seats

The car has been well maintained already during its time in Italy.

Externally, the overall impression is tidy for its age. Some surface rust has started to appear in the wheel arches. The car was written off last spring due to vandalism (scratching), but the most visible marks have been repaired. With a little extra finishing it could be even better, but as it stands it is fully usable.

Sold at this price with the set of tyres currently fitted (studless winter tyres).

Note:

- SID reports issues with the front lights (probably the monitoring relay) and occasionally the rear lights, although the lights still seem to work.

- Mirror adjustment does not work

Crankshaft position sensor just replaced.

A well-equipped and comfortable Saab like this is a bargain as a daily driver or hobby car – rarely offered at this trim level.
