SAAB 9-3 Viggen 2,3T — 1999

• Zustand technisch

  The car originally had an entertainingly strong turbo effect from low revs, and the power can be felt through the steering wheel when pushing it – still the case today. Gearbox, clutch, and brakes feel good, although the release bearing makes some noise. Otherwise, the car is free from modifications except for a 3" exhaust system. The owner has carried out all servicing himself from 30,000 km onwards, emphasizing that the intervals were much shorter and more frequent than what the service plan and book specify. He previously worked in the oil industry, hence all the frequent and careful oil changes.

• Zustand Interieur

  The leather interior has held up well, with only minor entry wear and some additional wear on the driver’s seat. The headliner is in good condition, and the electric glass sunroof opens and closes easily, as do all the power windows. The driver’s seatbelt retracts a bit slowly, probably related to the height adjustment. We had difficulty getting the climate control to respond and blow cold, but according to the owner it should work fine – perhaps an operating error on our part. The owner has fallen ill and was unable to present the car personally at the time of documentation.

• Zustand Exterieur

  The car needs a wash after being stationary, and the owner is trying to arrange this with help before delivery. The paintwork appears to be in good condition, and according to the owner it has never been repainted. The original rims were replaced when one was damaged in a pothole. The Road Administration compensated the owner, but at that time no new original rims were available to buy. Today, it is a bit easier to find a used set. The current wheels are fitted with older 17" Dunlop tires with good tread.

• Zustand gesamt

  Well-serviced and yellow, in fine original condition with good history, ready for a continued life of careful enthusiast ownership.

General information about the condition of the vehicles .

• At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
• During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
