"It has had just two private owners since new and has been carefully maintained in excellent condition, used mainly as a summer car throughout its life – resulting in a low mileage of only 72,900 km."

Description

This car was first sold on 2008-06-26 by a Saab dealer to its first owner, a gentleman in Göteborg, who kept it until 2016. The current owner, also from the Göteborg area, purchased it then with approximately 54,000 km on the odometer. Since new, the car has only been lightly driven as a summer car, and definitely so since 2016. It has always been properly serviced and inspected every year, never left standing or garaged. Most recently, it passed a fresh inspection without any remarks.

For anyone looking for a future classic, this is a great opportunity. With only 175 cars built for the Swedish market, the Turbo X is already considered a true collector’s car. This example, with its low mileage and careful ownership, stands out as an excellent choice for any Saab enthusiast or collector.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The engine starts immediately and runs well with no unusual sounds or noises. It feels strong with plenty of power, the automatic gearbox shifts smoothly, and the road handling is stable with solid brakes. The car is fitted with attractive alloy wheels, showing only minor scuffs on the front rims, and good tires. The engine bay is clean and tidy, with only slight oxidation on some alloy parts; the only small remark is a cracked brake fluid cap. It has just passed a new inspection on 2025-09-30 without any remarks.

  • Interior condition:

    Interior is clean and well-kept, with all seats in good condition. There is slight wear on the driver’s seat bolster and a small scratch/mark on the passenger seat (see pictures). Door cards, carpets, and headliner are also in very nice condition. The dashboard is undamaged, with fully functioning instrumentation and no pixelation issues. A distinctive feature on this model is the carbon fiber trim, which adds a sporty touch. All electric functions work as they should, including windows, mirrors, seats, radio, and paddle shifts. Note: the AC will be updated, but it was not tested during the test drive.

  • Exterior condition:

    Bodywork is straight and undamaged, with only a barely noticeable soft dent on the rear left passenger door. There are no standout rust issues, the only remark being a small spot on the inner edge of the rear right door (see pictures). The engine bay shows no rust. The underbody is clean and undamaged, with only light surface rust visible on some components and the exhaust cover.

    The paintwork is bright and clean, with a few small chips around the bonnet, bumpers, driver’s door, and door edges – nothing beyond normal wear. The rear light lenses show minor delamination marks, and the front grille plastic has a slightly duller finish.

  • General condition:

    Now is your chance to buy a well-kept example of the Saab 9-3 Turbo X – a car that has clearly not had a hard life, with solid bodywork and low mileage. Values of these rare models are only heading upward, so this is the right time to secure one before future prices double.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
