Default Saab 9-3 1.8t Vector. update

For sale on behalf of my dad wanting to get a small town car so he is reluctantly selling his Saab

Great car smooth and torquey that can return 35mpg on a run

Car has recently had a new turbo and service costing £950

2002 52 SIlver
120k
Full leather
good history
Ice cold Aircon (not that we need it at the mo!)
3 months MOT and Tax

Car has some bits that need addressing:
Some kid on a scooter decided to fly straight in to the rear passenger door causing a dent, the paint isnt cracked so a dent remover can sort that.

Car will need a water pump as it is leaking from there, I can supply the part if needed, I got a quote from a local saab specialist of £220

Wheels have seen better days.

With tiny bit of TLC it needs its up for £1100 ono, offers are invited

its a great car that still feels strong in all aspects, safe and solid.

Water pump now changed and running as it should.

My dad wants a small town car 5dr so a swap with something like a focus fiesta etc will be great

That's to preserve the anniversary of the current one so that it would fall on the same time. I just had a subaru mot'd that had 3 months left to run

Yes but I think you would lose a month so to speak, as if you took it in next month you could effectively have an mot for 13 months whereas if you take it in before that date, you will only have 12. Not that it really matters on a car you intend to sell anyway

Stick it on ebay bud. Will get your price on there seeing as similar ones have acheived a similar figure. If it was manual I would have already had it
