1990 SAAB 900I 16V CONVERTIBLE - 30,565 MILES

KEY FACTS

• A well-preserved example of the classic convertible, with a stylish silver finish, very low mileage and which remains original and unmodified.

• Under the bonnet is the 2.0-litre ‘B202’ inline-four, coupled to a four-speed automatic transmission.

• Having previously been kept in the same family from new and used sparingly throughout its life, it is presented in good mechanical condition with solid service history.

• Imported from Jersey and with all UK taxes and VAT paid, having gone through the official NOVA process. The V55/5 is present, filled in ready to be sent to the DVLA with the details of the new owner.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• Silver paintwork, grey velour upholstery, and a Philips stereo and cassette deck.

• Its original owner’s manuals, service book and purchase receipt will be included, along with a raft of maintenance invoices and correspondence to confirm the mileage and ownership information.

CONDITION

• No known bodywork damage.

• A new factory-specification soft-top has recently been fitted.

• The car has had some minor paintwork, though not in the past 15 years, and only needed in the past due to minor scratches or scuffing. It now presents with some touched-in stone chips on lower panels and a few bird dropping stains.

• The nearside front bumper plastic trim has some minor grazing.

• Inside, its grey velour upholstery is in great condition, with just a few creases to the seat bolsters and base panels.

• A few light marks can be seen on the dashboard plastics.

• No electrical faults have been detected.

• The car will be sold with a new 12-month MOT certificate ready for the next owner.

SERVICE HISTORY

• Its most recent service was in August 2020 at around 30,000 miles, where technicians at V12 Auto Ltd changed the engine oil and filter, before performing a full check-over.  

• Considering its low mileage, the car has a good service history record, as documented below.
