SUMMARY

From a manufacturer who also made aircraft back in the day, this wonderful surviving 900 Turbo presents in remarkably original condition.

DESCRIPTION

  • Saab launched the 900 in 1978 and the Turbo model arrived the following year, distinguished from the normal 900 range by turbine-style alloy wheels, discreet badges and a different front grille
  • Powered by the 1,985cc B201 turbocharged four-cylinder offering 143bhp and 173lb/ft
  • Finished in Cherry Red (127H) with a classic Saab 'aircraft-style' interior in beige cloth and sitting on Minilite-style alloys
  • Used daily by its most recent owner for the last five years and with its prior keeper for around 30 years
  • Fitted recently with a new clutch and four new tyres, it comes along with its original Saab seat covers and floor mats
  • Supplied with a large history file complete with numerous invoices detailing how well this car has been cared for, original dealer sticker in the rear window and dealer plates
  • For anyone looking for a modern classic capable of daily use (now ULEZ-compliant) and one that’s a little left-field, there are few that can touch the 900 Turbo
