And it was me who ended up with the Cadillac and it's a brilliant car. It cleaned up well didn't it :-) and we agreed a good price thank you Sophie. The drive is nice and firm and doesn't show its age, yes it looks like a hearse, but stands out lol. Never driven a Saab before but will be looking for a convertible one now as this is a lovely car to drive. Thank you for the car and it was fascinating to find your video afterwards, watched it nervously but all good in the end. Great job on the paintwork.
Great to hear!
Lucky you this is a nice car! I had a saturn based on the same platform and i quite liked it! Fun to see how they differ!
Love the badge-engineering! I can even remember the Saab 600 (Lancia Delta)
Love you dealing with the cheapies! Nice hit and runs here and there.
Thanks, plenty to come I’m sure!
As an American, seeing a Caddy that was never sold in the states is quite odd. If I was able to import it back to the states I would.
Yeah I imagine it would be an oddity over there
I bought a 2,8 turbo V6 BLS last year. Best car I have ever had! I was able easily to overtake several BMW's, Audi's and even Porsche's on the German autobahn! Cheap luxury car!
I liked watching this. Im sure you and your team will clean it all up well inside! TY for sharing. I like the music here too :)
"Build quality feels american".
..built at the Saab factory in Trollhättan, Sweden 🇸🇪
I couldn't have resisted this - what an absolutely terrific oddity!! Its honestly grubby and it should clean up well wih a bit of tlc and a decent service 👍👍.
wow what a difference cutting that paint back looks fab!!
Recently subscribed and loving the content. Keep it up mate
Thanks Eamon! 👍
I’ve just looked out of my window. And yes it’s the double of my saab 9/3 😃. Love your videos. Roll on the next one 👍👍
Thanks Gary!
Nice Hearse Joe 👍 😂🤣 Regards Chris
Kinda funky in its own way 😂be sumting different to ferry a couple off kidz and possibly a dog about seems a decent size motor Plus you can tell the ladz dwn the pub u drive a cadillac 😂
Key is common problem unlock button went on mine,coolant pipe is common for rusting same happened on my vectra same 150bhp engine can get a stainless pipe as i did
Black is always the best colour car motorbike or truck ,i had a black caravan too a construtam condor
This is a first for me. I've never heard of a BLS. Living in North America (Toronto), these were never sold here. I'm pretty up on my car brands but this is the first time I've been this surprised.
Happy to surprise you!
the mirror adjusters have probably got something like "Armor All" spray product in them, give them a good squirt of switch cleaner
Like watching 👀 you're channel for the cars you buy. Will you be doing another road trip with your mates anytime soon. 👍
Thanks, really need to organise one!
Keep the oddball mix. Much more interesting! Good stuff!
BLS was made and designed in trollhattan Sweden. The home of Saab Automobile AB, it essentially is a Saab! We still stock parts for these at Saab.
spot on with the title, normal cars would be boring anyways
Had these twice, only the saloon, I could never ever EVER ever accept it as OWT other than a Saab
re sat nav hold the eject button until the screen unfolds, theres a second slot behind it for the nav dvd.
Good tip, I’ll try that!
This car although looks like a Saab reminds me of a hearse. Sure it will quickly sell on. Good luck !
Another great video, good honest review, tbh i love this car, its different, as you said its just a Saab in drag but tbh i love it.
Will look even better after its been through the workshop.
Looking forward to an update on this one, would look great on my driveway 😜
In Europe they where known as the Better Looking Saab!!!
Love a saab 93,carry on with the shiters nothing wrong with them
i have one of these in the UK too. Its a saab. I have 100k miles and its a tank. problem is, you need a special plug for the diagnostic, which most mechanics dont carry. Oh and changing the headlights is a pain in. the ass. Any idea where to find parts for it?
oh dear you said hi guys again . lol.
They sold poorly in the USA. You also had a Subaru-Saab model when GM had a small part of Subaru the 'Tribeca' which was notorious for their ugly front/grill. This is definitely an unique motor.
The BLS was never sold in North America.
My BMW 5 series estate tourer. The rear parcel shelf is missing. BMW wants £1000 for a new one.
It's a genuinely rare collectable car. There seems to be only 15 of this spec on the road in the UK (saloon and wagon variants combined), so maybe just 10 of this exact spec. May be worth advertising on a classic car website for this reason.
I have one. Well, if there is only 15, its why I cant find any parts!
Thats why I cant find parts for mine
Presumably BLS stands for Bit Like Saab
Look like mk2 vectra doors ?
I might take issue with your description of "reliable" - if it's got the Fiat / GM 1.9 diesel engine, expect problems with turbos, intercoolers and EGR valves - luckily my 9-3 was a company car, so I didn't have to pay the bill......
Surely a must have for any aspiring undertaker, practically ready to chuck a stiff in the back and away you go!
I like that
Hi nice car for the funeral business not a joke hard 2 find black estate cars regards
I can give you mad and saab in the same sentence.
I bought the 2010 saab ng9-5 the actual car that top gear featured in the saab episode,so driven by may.
Bought it just after saab went bust,got it off it first owner (a "name" in saab owner circles)
Pick it up at his big detached house down south, to find it had a tow hitch and a bloody massive 4 wheel caravan (bigger than our house) which they had towed all over Sweden,France and Germany.
Paid £10k for it,lost my nerve with it as I discovered how few parts were available and part chopped it for £10k against a 2010 mondeo titanium x sport auto diesel estate.
Probably the safer bet!
It's a Saab, Fiat, Alfa Romeo and Cadillac... Maybe a Lancia too.
Strut top was 2020. Rare car and to be fair I really like it
Me too actually 👍
Dont like it one bit and I'm sure I'd have had a cheeky bid at 8 tonne ish myself. My kind of crap too. Recently had a £2050 Cap Punto for £700 A Colt for £300 Capping £890, A Fiesta for £400 cap was £1300 leather flatted polished lovely. Worst was the Fiesta, slipping / engine / clutch noise was non- existent but then expansion tank pressurised at end 12 miles drive. On a Fiesta, what's happening there, no fiesta ever had Cyl head woe. So polished it, bleed diagnose later. That Saab is a cack old car, had this kinda estate maybe 150 odd times 18 years buying sub £5k cars. Flatted and sold £2499 ish, nice.
Just had to scrap a 1.6 fiesta with a head gasket gone a 2 pistons slipping around, pain in the arse!
@@ShiftingMetal Yup, some terrible former keepers out there
The real question is are the seats in the Cadillac more comfy than the Saab? They do look a bit better than the standard seats in the 9³ and don't look to be wore out like Saabs usually do.
Can’t really say I remember the last Saab I sat in but possibly!
Looks like some 1 has changed all the badges why try sell it as a caddy when it's a saab great video.what happened to your ex police car
Still got it. It needs a fair bit of work, tempted to scrap it to be honest!
Never even heard of them. A lovely old shitter if ever there was one.
I really want this, I have no idea why but I feel it is something I need in my life. Swap you my 2013 1.6 diesel Civic? 🤣
Let’s do a deal 🤝😅
@@ShiftingMetal Hahaha, my impulse side says yes but the financially responsible is saying no. But, it is a "Cadillac!" 🤣🤣🤣
@@a.mgaming3418 just buy the caddy! 😂
good buff up,valet service,and new MOT 2495 all day long ,shame its not an auto
Why do dealers love those rip off sounding numbers I just put a price to the nearest 100 when selling my cars
If you want 2500 why not just say
Tat mmm that told me.l do enjoy channel.
I'd love to valet that 😊 lol
Come on down 😂
Well, I'd rather buy this Sadillac. The real mid-00's Caddy is way too big for Europe and has cheap interior.
Hello bro 😎, you definitely buy some old school classics 🎉and I enjoy buying the junk other people don’t buy
Thanks mate
Bro u American
If you asking me, no bro 😎 uk 🇬🇧
Cheap crappie cars?? Subscribed 😀👍
🫡
upmarket Vectra!
Tat and cheap cars make money. Haters love to hate, nice cars 10k cause more aggro many a time !!! Crap just is fun
Agreed!
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🚘
In Sweden we call them "Saabilacs"....
That makes sense!
You are a car dealer!! You MUST know about Cadillac and Saab. Start to research your business! It will help you not buy crap and improve your profit and reduce the customers coming back with complaints
Turns out it’s not a legal requirement to have an encyclopaedic knowledge on cars in order to sell them!
That's not a Cadillac. That is a Saab identifying as Cadillac with the pronoun BLS.😋
YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO MISGENDER!!!!
That's a cadillac in name only
Tag Heuer wolf of wall street?
Tag 1000, I think Dicaprio wore an all gold one in Wolf of Wall Street which is about 4 times as much 💷
@@ShiftingMetal I had the same as yours but sold it on ebay to a guy in the US many years back, regret selling it as prices have skyrocketed since, nice watch👍
It's basically a Vectraab.....GM junk!
How dare you! 😂
Nowt wrong with a cheap financial mistake haha 😂 how would ya know it’s a mistake till ya make it eh? I keep telling my lass this very fact
It’s a problem when you’ve got 15, like me! 😂😂
@@ShiftingMetal 15 lasses!!! That’s just greedy
@@ShiftingMetal 😂👊
It's not even a proper Saab though 😂
Its a Vauxhall pretending to be a Saab pretending to be a Cadillac 😂😂
I'd rather have a Saab - but preferably a proper one... 9000, 900 classic, 99... Proper Saabs were great cars.

😂👍 lol I absolutely love buying shitters and this thing is a bargain.
With DPF off and a cheap map this thing could terrorise 320D’s till the clutch goes pop.
Haha,
I don’t have any concerns *tries to decide if that’s a smoke or dust cloud behind me* 😂😂
