Saab 9-5 Aero HOT Estate manual (full engine rebuild and turbo worth over £4k)
As described, a non-modified Saab 9-5 Aero HOT Estate for sale which has had a recent top and bottom end engine rebuild including a new genuine Saab turbo.
All work has been carried out by Saab specialists (Saab Central, Bonnyrigg - Edinburgh) with documented receipts of work and cost.
*Car has only covered 8k since engine rebuild
Engine idles and drives like silk with no knocks, stutters or smoke (even on cold start) which can be all to familiar behaviour with 9-5 turbo models.
Car has only had 3 owners and has been well looked after with an extensive documented Saab specialist service history and work (see picture).
2005 was the year that the 9-5 switched to the Dame Edna shape, so this is considered a late model of the best shape 9-5.
Car is also in the most desirable colour combination of black exterior with cream/tan leather interior.
All of the electric functions on the car are working and none of the displays have any broken pixel errors/issues.
Car does have 206k miles (practically all motorway), but drives like a car that has done less than half the mileage and the new engine rebuild should see her well for another 200k!
I never expected to sell car (hence the expense on the engine rebuild), but I recently changed roles at work acquiring a car allowance and 2 estate cars for work is excessive.
An excellent straight/honest estate car that is comfortable, fast/reliable and can seat 5 adults with all luggage.


The car is the desirable Aero HOT which was the most powerful 9-5 of the range (250bhp) and comes with the following spec items;
ABS Cat1 Alarm 17 HOT Alloy wheels CD / tape players Climate control Driver`s airbag Folding rear seats Front electric windows Heated mirrors PAS Passenger`s airbag Rear electric windows Remote locking Side airbags Steering wheel rake adjustment Steering wheel reach adjustment 3x3 point rear seat belts Body coloured bumpers Cruise control Electric mirrors Front fog lights Headlight washers Height adjustable drivers seat Full leather seat trim & interior Roof rails Traction control Electric driver`s seat Heated seats Isofix child seat anchor points Lumbar support Parking sensors Service indicator Space saver spare wheel
Please note, whilst car is in very good condition, it is still 12 years old... So it does have some minor dings and scratches and age related issues;
Rear parking sensors are in tact, but seem to work intermittently from day to day (most likely a break in wire/dry connection?) Passenger front window works and in tact, but can fall off runner (likely a minor fix/tighten) Unfortunately someone recently left scratching in a supermarket car park front N/S bumper (see picture) As with most (1999-2005) 9-5 estate models, surface rust now starting to show on rear hatch panel (see picture)
Additionally - Please no time wasters or silly offers, I am in no specific rush to sell the car and its value represents the work carried out (you would be acquiring a rare performance estate car with a freshly rebuilt engine and genuine Saab turbo which has only covered 8k miles at less than half the cost of the work)
