Swap Swap. Saab 9-3 1.8t Linear manual for Volvo C70 auto.

[Tetleysmooth]

So, as some of you know, I bought this 05 plate (March 2005) Saab 9-3 convertible from a workmate. As soon as I saw him drive it into our works car park I knew I had to have it. It was during the heatwave and the top was down. It looked the bollox, even though it was absolutely filthy. I ummed and arred because it was a manual, I really don't like manuals, but I thought 'sod it', and bought it anyway. It drives absolutely terrific. Very quiet, but quick when you need it.

 

Living where I do in West Essex on the edge of East London, as far as I'm concerned, a manual box is a pain, as there's so much traffic, you're forever up and down through the gears, and I'm a lazy git.

 

So, why did I buy it? If I hadn't, I'd have wondered forever what I missed. Why am I willing to part with it? The one and only reason is the manual box.

 

I would love a Volvo C70 convertible auto, or even another Saab auto. If anything is offered, all will be considered.

Full details regarding the Saab will be given if there's any interest. It's mot'd until the end of January '19.

 

Anyone interested, please drop me a pm. Ta.

Dont own the car but there appears to be a half decent 9-5 Auto estate on UK Saabs at the moment? (Rear bumper aside)

The guys already got an HRV so needs the Saab gone

 

You'd then need to spend £100 spend with Karl at Saabnoob and have a car with about 250bhp

What you want is a nice Bora PD130 Auto

 

And a bit of cash

Thanks, but I'd rather stick with Volvo or Saab.
