Description
For sale is our 2002 Saab OG93 SE 2. 2 TiD 5 door hatch. Presently showing 153k miles on the clock. This car has had a huge amount of work done over the last two years, including a low mileage replacement engine at 128k (replacement engine was from a 93SS with 70k showing), replacement gearbox, new outer rear arches, replacement rust-free front wings, brakes, clutch, etc. My wife has recently started a new job and has a company vehicle, so the 93 is surplus to requirements. Car is located in Glenrothes, Fife

Bad points
Engine occasionally throws a CEL when cold, fault code shows glow plug feedback circuit fault, but disappears once warmed up. Car has never had a problem starting from cold even in the depths of winter.
Engine occasionally throws a CEL & hesitation on hard acceleration when warm, have cleaned the MAF, MAP & EGR which helped, but still occasionally happens. Resets with a restart, and ECU doesn’t store the code for some reason.
