The Appeal
The 9000 series was built on the success of its predecessor the Saab 900.
Offered in a wide variety of models and options over its 14 year production run, the Saab 9000 sold well thanks to its combination of exciting performance, luxurious interior, incredible build quality (with lots of extras not found in other cars of the time) and stylish design.

The interior of this 9000 presents excellently, showing only the slightest signs of wear.
The wood trimmed dashboard clearly draws influence from Saab’s jet fighter cockpit designs and looks absolutely fantastic, whilst the seats, door cards, trim and headlining all also present excellently.
The interior feels every bit as much the luxury executive cruiser today as it did when it was made.

The Exterior
- Excellent condition throughout
- Minilite wheels - original refurbished wheels are available with the car
- Full respray in Ruby red in 2017 that still looks fantastic
This Saab 9000 looks simply gorgeous finished in Ruby Red with the Saab Ronal “Minilite” wheels.
Thanks to the extensive work carried out that has included not just a full respray but either replacing or refurbishing many exterior trim components on the car, it is in exceptionally good condition, so much so that during the photoshoot several passers-by commented on it.
There are no marks, scratches, blemishes or fading that we could see anywhere, we think that it would be hard to find a better example of a 9000 CDE than this.

The Mechanics
- Long MOT
- Starts easily and idles smoothly
- The owner reports that it drives perfectly
- Colour matched rocker cover
- Recent new battery
- Four good tyres
- Auto gearbox service in 2021

As with the rest of this car the mechanics present very well indeed.
As can be seen from the images both the engine bay and undersides appear in excellent condition and as shown in the printout of the history the car has only covered 1600 miles since the last service.
The extensive documented history shows how well cared for this car has been and that it has clearly wanted for nothing.
