description

2010 Saab 9-3 Linear SE 1.9 TiD convertible. 150 bhp, manual gearbox, in rare Arctic White with black fabric roof and Obsidian black half leather interior.
Original CD/radio Saab Infotainment system with aux input, cruise control, air con/auto climate control, 6 speed box, 17inch alloys and a spacesaver spare wheel, power windows & heated door mirrors, factory fitted alarm & immobiliser, remote central locking and roof operation. Power hood fully working, in great condition and no leaks. 2 keys, folder with service book & owners manual. 4 seats - both leather and upholstery in very good clean condition.
MOT to 27.7.25. (No advisories). Tax reasonably economical at £210 per year. Insurance group 25E (my insurance is £250 a year).
Mileage is very low at 67k but will increase as in daily use.
Part service history (6 stamps). Previous owner home serviced the car for 9 years so no documentation, but I keep thorough records and every invoice.
3 owners. I have owned it a year, previous owner had it 9 years. Was originally owned by one of Beechdale Saabs' directors and maintained by them. Reason for sale is I would prefer a more practical petrol SUV as I don't do enough mileage to warrant a diesel car at 7,000 a year.
During my ownership it's had a new timing belt, auxiliary belt and water pump, 4 new tyres, front spring and front anti roll bar link rods, new battery, new genuine Saab EGR valve, the roof has been cleaned and re-proofed and the cabin filter housing removed, re-sealed and drains cleared. (Common fault is water ingress into passenger footwell due to seal deteriorating and drains blocking). Previous owner had new discs/pads shortly before selling. A common problem/advisory on Saabs is corroded subframes, but this is solid!
I HPI checked it when I bought it - no accidents, not written off and no outstanding finance (I have the report). MOT history is great, has had very few advisories throughout it's entire MOT history - available to check online.
Mechanically sound and runs/drives as it should. Unmodified/standard example, unlike many. Very clean car inside and out. Bodywork/paintwork very very good - no rust (common problem on the arches). Hard to believe it's nearly 15 years old. Stunning looking car and a well looked after/cherished example.
Only bad point is that it may benefit from an aircon recharge at some point - it's cool but not icy cold. Or you could just put the hood back!.
No timewasters please or 'is this still available' messages. If you see the advert, then it's still available. No offers until you have viewed it. Thanks.
