Saab 9-5 Hirsch 210BHP 2.0 Vector Sport Estate ULEZ Petrol Manual

I am offering for sale my wife's 2007 (Jan) Saab 9-5 2.0t Hirsch Tuned Vector Sport Estate Car. Manual transmission, half leather seats, in black with black interior.

1 owner since new from Saab Derby from National Stock at 2 miles on the clock now 122,537 on the clock with MOT till Jan 2025.

Car is 100% working and has some super tuning elements. Handles brilliantly and mostly driven by my wife very carefully. Hence, only needing a new clutch in 2021!

I have a vast amount of service history and all the usual things have been sorted out over time and the car is running like a dream. I am selling as my daughter is learning to drive so three cars is too much to run. It is lower tax and insurance than an Aero auto at £395 last year. It really has been our flagship car and well looked after for so long. I have a huge list of data and documents over the life of the car and all the original documents from new, which are included. Nottingham Saab did a lot of work on this car before stopping business so its all done well. This is a very rare and amazing ULEZ car that drives like a rocket and feels like a golf GTI but better interior and quiet motorway cruiser!

It must go to a good home to be loved like we have loved it an amazing car, and also potentially I may bundle in the sale my matching genuine Saab roof rack and a vast Karrite Odyssey 580L roof box full working order (hardly used) including two keys unless it is already sold on Ebay!

I also have some spare service parts as well that I have collected over the past 25 years I am selling separately but buyer is welcome to tag them on for a reasonable price.

Negatives…bit of underbody corrosion, and a little on drivers rear wheel arch and a few pin dents etc.. but nothing major, some water marks on passenger seat, could be washed out, a small hole in headliner near the handle (not major), some scratches on plastic trims here and there, suspension lots done but upper rear arms and wishbone will need doing in around 2-3 years, nothing major, and subframe good and clean.

Anyone is welcome to come around and have a look, I will drive it for you if you want a test drive unless full insurance can be shown on paper.
