I am having to re-list because the winner never paid the depost, never contacted me and never answered my emails. Don't be that guy please. I bought this Saab nearly 5 years ago with 154,000 miles from the original owner who was a Catholic priest. Being a rare base 2-door with leather interior, it was exactly what I wanted. It was very well cared for with only synthetic oil and has only had the same since. It has been my daily driver for this entire time and has been virtually trouble free and a joy to drive. I was days away from putting it in the shop to get a few things fixed when a neighbor’s visitor backed into it the one and only time I had ever left it on the street. The fender, bumper, and directional light are damaged as seen in the photos. Other than this new damage, the car has never been damaged and has had no paintwork. It needs a transmission mount replaced which causes a very minor thump when starting from a standstill. This is a common problem with the automatic cars. I had it replaced one other time several years ago and it cost $50. (still have the receipt). It is also leaking coolant in the left front area and I don’t know if it is a hose or the radiator. I just add water pretty often and never had it looked at. I can’t see where it’s coming from. The check engine light will come on for a few days and then go off for a few days. I have had 3 Saabs and they all did this. The engine is excellent as is the transmission. The interior is very good. The CID is perfect. The steering wheel and dash are not cracked. I hate to see it go and will probably be getting another one but I can’t fix it myself and it wouldn’t be economically feasible for me to have it fixed. It would be good for parts, fix yourself, or just cheap transportation. I’m going to let the market work and list it with no reserve.
