Vehicle Detail

For Sale is a 2000 Saab 9-5 Aero Wagon. 2.3T high output turbo with 230 horsepower. 5 speed automatic. This is a very rare/hard to find car. I bought this car from the original owners, so I have all the maintenance records from day one, including the original window sticker. It is fully loaded and is the Aero model (comparable to the BMW "M" or Audi "S" lines) It comes with the Saab BBS Sports wheel package and has the 17' premium wheels. Very nice car, sporty powerful and a joy to drive. Exterior is in pretty good shape for its age. Some scratches and dings but no major body damage. Interior is in alright shape. The drivers leather seat is cracked in some spots. Passenger a bit as well. The back seats arent as bad as they didnt get much use over the years. Now here is the deal about this car: it is going for a MECHANICS SPECIAL/AS IS condition. It has multiple problems that need attention but with some work, it shouldnt be too hard to get back on the road. (Or could always be used as parts) The car starts/runs. The engine and transmission are good. There is an oil leak from the valve cover I think is what my Saab mechanic told me, he said it is common for these 9-5's. The radiator has a pretty bad leak. Needs replacement -The odometer display turns on and there is a reading of 114,880 miles.-The information coming from the engine feeding the ABS ECU (i.e. RPM, speed, distance) is flowing from whatever engine sensors to the ECU. This is apparent because the Speedometer and Tachometer both register correct speeds and RPM’s respectively. -Yet, the Odometer is stuck at 114,880 miles which leads us (me and my mechanic) that it could be a simple connector or LCD display issue (not the ABS ECU itself but the full issue is unknown). The Saab Information Display (SID) has a lot of dead pixels (it is still somewhat readable). Also common on these early 9-5's) The struts to hold up the hood and trunk are old/dont work. I do have a set of trunk struts I will include. I also have a spare window regulator/motor I happened to get. Otherwise all the features work: keyless entry, power seats, heated seats, sunroof, radio, climate control, CD player/6 CD changer. The tires are fairly low on tread. Thats about as much as I know, I am getting rid of the car because it's just more work than I have the time/money to put in. My loss your gain. The car would probably need to be towed (as the coolant leak is pretty bad). Im a Saab enthusiast, and this car is trully a gem. I would love for it to go to good hands. Feel free to message me if you have any questions.
