SAAB! There, I said it.

[Shalien]

I am the proud owner of a nearly 20yr SAAB 9-5 AERO Estate. Stage 1 Remap, upgraded Billys shocks all round, and OEM Springs. Many other new bits too.

I'm proudly running what other's consider shite, for much less than the PCP on their eurobox etc. 😁😂

[Shalien]

BTW, Saabnut made me do it? He thought one forum wasn't enough for me to deal with? 😖🤣

[CaptainBoom]

Welcome Shalien, there are a few of us UKSAABS folk also here, I'll leave them to reveal themselves...

[gm]

no longer mine but what a cracking motor this was, would definitely have another someday

welcome to AS, mr Shalien

[sutty2006]

I used to own a saaaaaaaaab..... does that count? 
 

 

what? I felt left out...... 

 

 

ok I’ll go. 
 

 

 

[Shep Shepherd]

Here's mine. A £995 eBay bargain in 2016:

Scruffy but sound and going strong as a daily driver at 193,000 miles and counting

My old one---i believe it's still in the AS fold somewhere?

JimH took it away off up to Scotland, not heard anything of it since 

[Saabnut]

Took your time Shalien!

[Supernaut]

Here's my heap of crap.

[tooSavvy]

I had a 2.0LPTAuto saloon. Preg

....... whooooshhhh...... Aye

[brownnova]

And here are my Saabs too! 
 

The 9000 now up to 205,000 and used most days. 

 

And the 900 bought on a whim and I’ve spent far too much getting it right....

 

I do love my Saabs to be fair! 

[2MB]

My dad is a serial Saab licker but I’ve always had Volvos when in the mood for a bit of swede. It’d feel like cheating but I really must try owning one while they’re accessible 

[2MB]

This was a long time ago but the 95 aero had my bmw truly beat in power output and number of washer jets

[brownnova]

And here’s my old 9000 now sadly scrapped... 

[wuvvum]

I'm Saabless at the moment but have owned 28 of them over the years.

Still going just fine. New flexible joint in the exhaust, a handbrake cable and a lower balljoint is about all it has needed. Annoyingly it failed its MOT on the bloody servo because the seal had failed. This cost £0.00p to sort but took two days to work out how to extract and refit the sodding thing using only your fingertips. At least it stopped the hissing noise coming from under the dashboard.

[Six-cylinder]

Saab, these are in the past, but I am not cured and I am hoping in the summer a deal will be struck with a friend to take on another one.

[Vantman]

One of my previous 9000s, now owned by @Nibblet---

 

[Craig the Princess]

The Saab of many shiters is currently having the head gasket done. The mechanic said the timing belt was holding on by thoughts and prayers alone.

 

Once I've spent a load on that I'll have an un-MoTed car with a broken roof.

[dozeydustman]

My one and only Saab is now in the hands of another shiter, a93 TiD sportwagon150bhp

I’ll have another bash at one when time and money permit. Preferably a ragtop.

[GeordieInExile]

I miss my Aero estate, remapped (noob stage 1) and manual - so comfy, so fast. Still in the AS fold I believe. I'd definitely have another some day.

Would also like to try a 9000 at some point. Maybe when I've had enough of my T5.

[Surface Rust]

I still have a yearning for another Saab, classic 900s are peak car for me and I'd love another. 

I can't claim to have owned 28, but I did peak at three at the same time. Only the red turbo lives on in the hands of my brother.

My low point was bending one substantially on a navigation rally. 

 

[jmsguzzi]

My 9-5 2.3T.

Should be up for sale/raffle soon!

[loserone]

That's a lovely colour.  I wonder what I'd do with two of them.
