Description
Regretfully selling my Saab 900i Cabriolet, first registered on 07/ 06/ 1990, an iconic example of the last generation of the 900 Classic Cabriolet — a Swedish design icon from the 1990s, increasingly sought after by collectors.
EXTERIOR
Original metallic grey paint. Very clean overall lines. Electric black soft top in excellent condition — recent. Original 15" wheels in good condition. Recent tyres.
INTERIOR
Black leather 4-seat upholstery, fully restored in 2022 by a Saab specialist in accordance with the original leather — restored rather than replaced. Dashboard completely refurbished by a Saab specialist (2014) — instruments, vents, lighting. Central locking functional. Electric windows serviced — the motor for the left rear window is tired and will probably need replacement. Centre console replaced.
MECHANICS
2. 0i naturally aspirated engine — reliable and economical, without turbo complexity. 5-speed manual gearbox. New starter. Recent battery. Lambda sensor replaced. Water leak repaired. Right-hand headlamp replaced. Note: the ABS unit is out of service and would need replacing by the buyer — this point is not blocking for the MOT.
HISTORY
Over €8, 500 of documented work, carried out exclusively by Saab specialists — invoices available at viewing. Main interventions include:
Complete clutch (rear main oil seal, disc, clutch kit) + oil pump — 2014
Power steering: full rack and pinion replacement + tripod and gearbox output — 2014
Suspension: front wheel bearing, upper ball joint, rear spring spacers, front and rear shock absorbers, wishbones — 2014
Dashboard fully removed and redone: instruments, lighting, vents, controls — 2014
Complete leather upholstery restored by specialist in keeping with original materials — 2022
Dynamo new, engine wiring loom, braking components — Saab Supply Belgium
Electric soft top: ram replaced, interior trim removed and refitted
New starter, lambda sensor, recent battery, recent tyres
MOT not current: the vehicle has spent more than a year with a Belgian Saab specialist for full restoration — the MOT expired during this period. The vehicle is roadworthy. MOT to be arranged by the buyer, or the option to have it done before sale on request.
