I'm not how much you guys have seen my other post but I managed to acquire a selection of volvos..

Well I've had a Saab 95 aero hot for a few years and I was bored in work one day when I managed to stumble on not one Saab 93 but 2 of them..

A quid phone call later and I bagged the both of them.. not sure I really need 3 saabs along with my Volvo and golf but at the price I paid I couldn't say no..

One needed a wheel bearing and one needed a back box..

I've put the wheel bearing on the one (the previous owner drove it drunk and hit something)



Unfortunately the guy who drove it drunk also cracked 3 out of the 4 alloys..

I was on the hunt for a quick set of wheels local and managed to bag these wheels for a few quid.. I know they are not the best but they had brand new tires and were not cracked..

When they are worn I will put some genuine ones back on..

Both saabs are vector sports so the 150bhp diesel.. the black one is an auto and the blue one is a manual..

More of the black one



I haven't got many more pics yet and I haven't had time to get the back box on the blue one..

Lastly to make room for the two saabs I had to bin 2 of my volvos..



That's just one of them after they had been rehomed..

Lastly I managed to obtain tech 2 with candi this weekend so if anyone in the south Wales area needs a hand with anything gm give me a shout. (I haven't fully figured out the tis aspect yet but have new software to try this weekend)

Cheers guys

i'm more for the old generation 9-3s but they look to be pretty nice.

i prefer the wheels you've added - if you wanted to move them on at some point ... !!

My dad had a black manual one of these, identical spec. I loved that thing, it was pretty fast for what it was! REALLY pissed off our friend once when my dad managed to out drag him on a B road in his CATERHAM! Corners were a different thing however...tongue out
