Low mileage 1.3 16v Charade, tax til September and test til March 2021, €1150

Claims of loads of recent work, looks tidy, 1 previous owner etc. A gem!

Surprised your not hoping on it yourself: )

Was only looking at importing a Detomaso recently. That looks a gem

Just had a thought, are auctions a good source of a bangernomic? Forgot they existed because of this covid stuff.

Toyotafanboi of this parish recently bought an Auris from Merlin auctions, in bangernomics budget I believe, but generally I'd say they're probably not the best places to go looking. Fees can be high and you're buying unseen at the minute

As is often the case, it’s actually 3 owners. Nice car for small money

Somebody is getting a Chinese!
900 quid for that is amazing with NCT and all and knowing you won't meet a single one anywhere else on the roads!

I have had this for about 4 years with no trouble cost me 1200 then now for sale at 800, going with a good bit of tax, one of the best bangernomics cars I've had and fun to drive, I bought a 2008 one this time for 1250 with full leather etc so hopefully will serve me well!

2.5 manual S40 T5, NCT til September, same owner since 2006, €1150

This is a bit of a curiosity; 2004 is very early for one of these. I didn't realise they were available in this trim/engine either. Looks like it could be a very nice buy for the money

And there it is again for the prestige price of €4000

What's the 180hp one like, the ttid engine are they any good?
Like the look of the saab I'm just unsure of how reliable they are

Oh man weapons. Ultimate Diesel sleeper.

So long as the turbos are in good order - for €150 an ECU remap will take it to 240hp.

My buddy has one and it will give the aero 2.3 petrol a run for the money. His is mapped a few years and runs sweet. Usual Dpf crap but as is with all diesel from that era.

There was a lovely example a few pages back, looked lovely.

Once you find a local Saab specialist you are sorted.

Owning a Saab isn’t expensive, and not hard to find parts. It’s a massive club to be part of and nice mature one at that.

Saw that Seicento earlier alright. Looks great initially, but there's something odd about the photos the more I look at it. Could be the photos themselves, but almost looks like a car with very peculiar dents or marks has just been sprayed over, or maybe I just haven't had enough coffee yet!!

Cheers for the reply would love to get a 9-3 180 only problem i see is the ones that appear do have high mileage upwards of 180k miles.

I'd love to take a gamble regardless though as I never considered them an option.

Looks suspiciously like the return of our friends again. Bears all the hallmarks of the ones that were going up on a daily basis a couple of months back.

Newer than 2008
Low price
Diesel
Stupidly low mileage
No car reg shown

Classic insurance?

Then he says a future classic.

Just had a removable full respray?

Not the kind of guy you'd be trusting when he tells you the timing belt and water pump were replaced.

That Seicento is owned by a fella that is restoring one of my old Skylines... He does most of it himself in a shed and I saw the pics of him painting it. Indoors, with minimal masking and no dustproofing.

If it’s as clean as described you would be a happy camper.

I was tempted myself to go for it, but I back out as I really don’t need another Saab anymore!

Not bangeromics but for that price it about right if clean - and boy does it look clean €200 road tax is mental considering the power and the kit you get
