Hi Chaps, being a massive Saab fan, currently on my 5th - an 08 Ttid Aero Sportwagon (love it!), it was great to come across your channel. Looking forward to following your adventures in what has to be one of the best but seriously underrated car brands out there. Well done on reviving a great car.

Owned a saab 9-3 a few years ago and loved it, same engine as this but mapped to around 200bhp. Never liked the cup holders......I now own a vauxhall monaro and it has the same cup holders 😂😂 Been looking at getting another saab, maybe the convertible in petrol ❤

Good content guys, I look forward to seeing more stuff!

Great vid! Rest of the Europe is super jelous for prices cars in UK are being sold...until the point when we see insurance rates on these haha. Great job! Keep posting!!!!

Had a 2.8 V6 convertible and loved it sold it to start a wedding car company which has now finished , now own a 2010 9-3 ttdi 160 bhp which is great and only £35 tax my only wish is it's a manual which isn't the best and I think the Powered power characteristic would have suited an auto box better. Really enjoyed your video well done 👏

an interesting thing about these is how many organizations use them. the police and the MI6. at least in the Bond films. its cool to see the middle class sector driving a vehicle that the wealthy also drive. its a very high class line no matter what year or who's driving. older ones look just as classy as new.

Just about to pick up my 2006 V8, 120,000 miles. I previously owned the straight 6 model.

I recently brought a 06 M57 L322, absolutely love it. They have so much character and a dream to drive

Only thing with an estate car as an option, you can't get them in a 6 or 7 seat option

Had a few range rovers, always older models, starting with 3.5 v8 classic so truly hooked. Just bought my 2nd L322 which is an 05 3.0ltr diesel. Absolutely love it in spite of the fuel consumption, which is way better than my 14mpg petrol v8 l322, so average 23 mpg is great. Great vid - thanks 👍🏻

Yes. It is the best Range ever 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼👌🏼👌🏼😊😊

I love the M57 and actually also own a e61 535d alongside the L322. Both cars have been looked after by previous owners. The RR has 310000km's and the BMW is getting close to 400k without any major issues. The biggest advantage of the L322 with the TD6, is the fact that parts are inexpensive and widely available if something does go wrong. Also, the early pre facelift cars have gracefully aged into modern classics Every iteration of the l322 after that just lookjs like an afterthought.

I wouldn’t buy an electric car personally but I didn’t think the battery degradation issue was as bad as you described it? Lots of high mileage Teslas on the road?

When I bought mine a few years ago the V8 twin turbo diesel was the one the specialist had least concernes about. I’ve had a few predicatable things which would have been much less pricey if I hadn’t gone to Newbury 4x4 who way overcharge, but no show stoppers … and having just brought this thing up from the paddocks today after pulling a barn down and carrying all of the necessary gear in white leather comfort … it’s the best car I’ve ever bought next to my S1 Lotus Elise. That has done 1 thing brilliantly for 25 years now … this just does every single thing I need superbly. 👍

I got myself one just like yours 3years ago, same year same spec £1500 spent £360 on it, best weekender i've ever brought' cracking car.

The diesels are great indeed, that is until you start getting dpf clog ups due to regen problems. These diesels need to be driven hard once in a while to get the best out of them. Swirl flaps and Egr will be/can be a proper headache too which means removing the intake manifold and high pressure fuel pump. Ask me how I know. I own 2 of the blighters, a 9-3 ragtop and a 9-5 Sportwagon, both bloody diesels. Have actually driven that crazy road in to Aberystwyth from my home in Shropshire many times. Good vid lads and all the best for future content.

the 1.6 had 114bhp (118 for the eunos), the 1.8 had 128bhp (133 for the eunos), both cars have the same 0-60 times of 8.7 seconds as a result of a weight difference of around 60kg's and a lot of people seem to prefer the 1.6 cause its more free-revving.

Enjoyed the video, very professional for a new channel. Subscribed.

Hey guys love this video... Back in August I was a bit stupid and bought a Vauxhall Vectra estate SRICDTI 1.9 On a 09 plate with tow bar as I previously owned a CDTI 1.9 With far more miles on the clock and it started my courier work so I loved it. However I then bought a Range Rover Vogue 55 plate its in very dark blue with two tone leather 3.0 BMW as you mentioned I still don't have trailer.. Going buy todays prices there cruel I obviously paid a bit too much £2700 I do love the car.. But you get a lot of car for this money.. Great video.

Miata was never meant to be a show car. It will always be a bundle of joy for anyone whos driving

no comments!? I shall change that!!

no both the 4.2 supercharged and 5.0 are more reliable

Great vid lads . Always fancied one of those.

A truly green car, and not just in colour. Such a shame cars like this are being driven off the road to be replaced by overly complex cars which won't last anywhere near as long. Hope this one keeps going for a good while yet.

I have the Scirocco Mk3 which is built on the Golf platform. 130k miles and cost me less than 2.5k. If you didn't know, you'd think the car has 30k miles on the clock with the way that it drives. Never missed a beat and never failed an MOT!

Had a silver 1.9tdi back in 2003 as a company car. Head lights were made from glass....yes GLASS 😮...when diesel was £0.74/ltr 😂

I’ve had 2 and I’ve always regretted getting rid of them

Wales has such fantastic scenery. Great video which proves that Saabs are still such good cars and amazing value for money now too!

Great video. That car looks a bargain at £500 and has cleaned up really well. I've had my convertible just over a year and love it.

Great videos guys…. I hope you are enjoying the Saab convertible - I’ve had a 2005 and 2010 model in the past - fantastic cars. Now own four Saabs :-). Looking forward to your next trip and project.

You can buy dye for the roof,and then use fabsil after a few days to waterproof it.looks brand new afterwards, bargain price.

In my experience the BMW era L322 (TD6&4.4v8) are probably the most unreliable! The td6 gearbox is terrible!! And the electrical issues are a nightmare! The sweet spot is late 06 to 09 pre facelift! The 4.4 jaguar v8 is sublime! And the 3.6TDV8 is amazing when changing the oil every 5k or so to save the turbos! The facelift 09-12 in my opinion is a bit too much with its LED lights and TFT display! But that’s just my opinion and any L322 is far better than driving any boring Japanese 4x4 or soul destroying euro box!!!

2000.00 on a 50000.pound car.is not that bad.when new about 80:000. Think about it.

Only car could be a volvo xc90 or a porsche cayenne that could come close to it

Range Rover L322 turbos are not a body off. They are a unibody. The range rover sport. Is a separate chassis. Get a V8 diesel and you will never look back.

Great insight gents! For those in London, what’s the feeling about the ULEZ compliant petrol V8 version? 👍🏼

Nice to see someone saving a SAAB. I’ve been saving them for the last 6 years and have owned about 20. Currently have a 2005 9-3 SS Aero Hirsch 252 Turbo Performance on 167k, a 2008 9-3 SS Aero 2.8 V6 Sportwagon with 199k, a 2006 9-3 SS Aero convertible in Lime Green with 153k, and a 2011 9-3 SS Aero Tx Design on 157k. Can’t get enough of them, all petrols of course.

Great video! What next for the Saab?

thanks for saving a saab

Great videos chaps, please keep them coming 👍🏼 We have a 2007 93 Aero and the top down temperature threshold is 12degC -heater and seats up to max. Wind deflector deployed, you could easily go to single digits. 😃

You are very lucky, great car, just fun to have and drive! 😊

Great video lads, Saabs looking like an absolute minter, keep it up

don't pressure wash the top.

Good luck with the transformation guys - I am currently working through the refurbishment of my own 9-3 Convertible : seats have been out and the leather reconditioned and recoloured, roof cleaned and waterproofed and carpets cleaned and extracted. With the roof - very bad idea to use a jet-wash on it : can cause a lot of damage to the waterproof membrane. Just rinse off with a normal garden hose. For waterproofing use Fabsil Gold - it stinks, but does a great job and you can see the water beading on the surface. Like you guys, next up for me is new discs and pads all round. Looking forward to following your adventures with this one!

Great video lads, just gained yourselfs a new sub

I just found this video on my homepage and since I’m a Swedish cargirl I just had to watch the video, I can’t wait for part 2!! Subscribed!☺️

Incredible transformation, particularly the interior.
