I reckon Ethan, Alex and Jack (in his S Wagon) should do a road trip back to the birth place of Saab in Scandinavia with two other Saabs from Ash’s court yard of Saab’s. I’d love to watch that! 😂
@@willewiking98 yeah... In my opinion the brand started going downhill almost a decade before they went out of business, after they were fully acquired by GM. They lost what made them special :( 2002 was the last good year
Wow, that's some fair pricing on the shop floor! If you proceed to bring it back to live please do it there to give these guys a platform to promote themselves. Every Saab saved counts :' )
Sweden + Finland trip during winter, as they used to make the convertible in Uusikaupunki here. And a meetup at both places. Pretty sure the "Saab scene" is quite active in both countries.
You have to give it the works. The death of SAAB was a crime in itself. They were one of them companies who didn't give a F about the cost as long as they were making an innovative, safe and all round damn good car. I hope that they can some how spring back from the dead one day.
@@chrispalmer5537 that's how they died. They basically made a vauxhall insignia into the SAAB 9-5 and threw more money at it than they could recoup from sales. The car was truly amazing for the time though.
Actually it's fine Saab died. It was GM that couldn't handle the Swedish. I'm a big Saab guy only drives Saab. Because they are amazing. But the newer Saab models 9-3 is not much Saab. IST 50/50 Opel and Saab. Ist still better than most cars. But not great. And if GM would down the cost more as they wanted. The Saab are just turning into a Opel. And then it will just be rubbish. I'm fine for the rest of my life there are so many great old saab's out there for the rest of my life. So no worries here. And old Volvo is also alright.
The reason they aren't around anymore is because they didn't "GIVE A F**K"! Companies that don't control their costs don't make a profit. No profit and you can't keep a business viable.
This garage needs all the support it can get! You don’t see garages trying to save as many cars as possible a lot. A noble cause, not saying that lightly.
Props to the Saab savers everywhere! A very noble man and cause. It's people like this that make it possible for we Saab owners to continue enjoying the experience of owning AND DRIVING these cars. Really appreciate this channel for supporting that, too. GOOD WORK! Can't wait to see the road trip vid.
Great seeing Jack as the main presenter, he´s really good at it. I think the saab specialist should do the stuff to get it road worthy again and for other things like the bodywork, rust and stuff, I think it would be a great idea if you took it to various local specialists and showcase their craftsmanship.
I have a Saab sportswagon diesel automatic 93 that you can have for £3k I absolutely HATE this car, had new water pump, rebuilt alternator, new timing belt and had to have a new Cim. Saab is most definitely the WORST car I have ever owned.
Nice to see Jack in the lead role, i've always had a sort of curious soft spot for Saab, would be awesome to see a full restoration/road trip with this car.
Great seeing Jack doing the lead role! The Saab 100% needs to be saved, get the car back looking mint then do the usual EGR & DPF deleted & mapped out, welded inlet, stage 1 remap from TP Remapping and the car will be transformed! I have the same engine and auto box in my Vectra estate and I love it! Mines on 203k now and it’s my daily 😎
Saabs are great! My first car was a 08’ 93 2.0T and I still have it! By far my favorite car I’ve own and have owned. Hopefully you guys will spend the money to save this Saab!
Great to see a company looking after these motors, they're going to be very very rare real soon, and they pretty much are already. What a shame that Saab's motoring arm folded and in 2022 it's China who's getting all the money and custom. Saab's were unique and paid some serious homage to their aircraft design and engineering. Can't think of anything else quite like them.
The 9-5 one is more refined, doesn't come out like its about stab you, I reckon they gave the design job to some intern who wanted to work on something more complex and was out to prove a point, same goes for the air vents.
Good to see jack doing his own video! Always loved a Saab, I think this one deserves the full treatment, get it back to as good as it can possibly be! It'd be nice to see some of the cars treated with a bit more love and maybe a bit more longevity to them on the channel. Loads of daft stuff you can do with a decent estate car without having to destroy them.
Great job Jack on the presenting, subtle without dominating the discussion. It’s about the car not him. Give the car a new life and a road trip to the Northern lights and a tour of Sweden sounds great. Perhaps some Swedish rally roads, back to the heritage of the early cars.
I’m finding every Saab owners comment and watching the community flock here :) I own a OG9-3 It’s not a viggen but I want to be faster than the Viggen.
I bought one as an "emergency" purchase after a crash. Ended up keeping it for 3 years as it was a cracking car and sold it to a mate who is still using it as his daily 😁 Bought a second one off another friend for scrap money as a spares car. Ended up tarting it up, put a MOT on it and sold it to a third mate! Bought it back off him 18 months later (again as a spares car) then sold it to the first mate as a spares car 🤣 Massively underrated and unfairly tarnished with the "Vectra with a Saab badge" image. Seem to be getting thinner on the ground all of a sudden and it's great to see someone looking after them!
This Saab clearly isn’t ready to die, even without your love. I say spend the coin and get it safe, do the remap and enjoy driving the legend. It would also benefit from changing the transmission fluid. I have a 2001 Aero convertible with 32,000km on it which is a time machine. It is like driving a new car. Saab’s are not so popular in Australia but are worth saving.
Taking the SAAB home would be amazing. You could hit up the factory in Trollhättan first, get some cheap E85 in the area as well. Then just slowly work your way up north until you hit the old testing grounds in Kiruna and the ice lake out there.
these look so cool, I just wish they were RWD, same goes for 159's. I understand the financial reasons but I can't help thinking, what if these were RWD...
The funny thing is, the platform of the 159 was actually engineered with a possible RWD layout in mind, with longitudinal engines up to V8s. (Besides the common FWD/AWD setup with tranverse engines). Examples of this plan being the 2002 Brera concept or the Insignia concept from 2003... But GM cheaped out and didn't want to use this rather expensive platform from FIAT for their bigger Cadillac/Opel/Vauxhall/Saab models as it was inteded. So only the FWD version made it to production and all these shenanigans just ended up making the 159, Brera and Spider unncessarily heavy with rather tight interiors - for their class. Despite these shortcomings the 159 still remains an absolute timeless piece of automotive design. Back in the day I ended up buying a YS3F, because the Alfa had no properly nice petrol engines - when the SAAB had an all new turbo petrol.
@@shieldmaiden1248 FWD beats RWD in economics, safety and weight. But I get what you mean! That 4wd Saab they saw in the yard of this video I would love to see restored and turbo'ed to hell and back
I love that you're taking care of this Saab. These cars deserve such great love, and I'm so happy to see people dedicating their time restoring so many of them. My absolute respect!
Save it, get it done mint condition. Road trip to Sweeden. Only thing you didn't cover. What would the value be once the car is restored to mint condition?
Full restore for sure. Considering Alex and Ethan got rid of their cars from that challenge within 3 months, and Jack has kept this for 2 years, I think its worthy of it. He keeps saying how much he enjoys it and it'd be a waste to bin it for laughs. Make it a series with Sam in on it, like Adam from Volkstechniks with the 3 Series Compact. Then a road trip to Sweden for a Saab/Scania meet. Would love to see your take on their back catalogue, cars and trucks, and some conversations with passionate owners...especially regarding some of the vehicles' oddball features. I've loved seeing glimpses of this Saab in the background of shots during the last 2 years, its been one of my fave cars you guys have had on the channel and just knowing it was still soldiering on in faithful service is one of those little things that added to your videos Enjoy it so much so, when I needed to buy my first car, I went looking for one (they're spenny out here, $25k for one with over 200,000km on the clock).
can confirm saabs are a fire hazard, had an electrical fire in my saab 9-3, part of the interior is black from the smoke, but it seemed like nothing was damaged at all except the panel under which the wires were located
i love my 9-5 aero. got it 5 years ago for 1,200 bucks. probably put way more then i'd like to admit in it but she never let me stranded, sounds great, and makes all the cool turbo noises (can't forget the manual)
I personally couldn’t care less where you take the car. Just as long as you keep it healthy & road worthy, I miss Saab too much already so please don’t kill it.... :(
Get it repaired, I used to see these on the road all the time and they really stood out to me and I think this car deserves to have a longer life, I’d even consider it is your GTI replacement.
I think that it would be awesome to see it restored to mint condition considering that despite being worth nothing and being treated to burnouts and skids it keeps going.
I truly believe Jack should be lead presenter now. Back in the day he was one of the quietest but remained the funniest with his one liners like "toffee toffee" etc. Wish Alex all the best and definitely watch his new channel but make Jack the lead presenter please! P.S also he is deffo overdue a decent loaner
The smartest thing that should be on everyone's mind right now should be to invest in different streams of income that are not dependent on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in gold, silver and digital currencies (BTC ETH...).
as someone who was a Saab specialist tech, i grew to like the petrol Saabs, but the 1.9 Diesels always gave more grief. Swirl flap issues, EGR issues, DPF regen failures etc. But they were still nice to work on.
@@oscarmathia6112 yeah those are getting a bit rarer, I only ever saw a couple when I was a saab specialist a couple years back. and as you said, swirl flap delete, egr delete and dpf delete and remap will actually be cheaper than replacing the intake manifold and swirl flap assembly.
I’d love to see the Saab get the full, mint repair/resto done on it, it really does deserve it! Would then be great to see it get taken on a good road trip somewhere, totally down for that!! Keep up the great work boys!!
I think the fact that Jack is developing a ‘lead presenter’ role is fantastic. Looking forward to seeing him front and centre in the near future!
Considering Alex left Car Throttle as an employee, it makes sense.
There does need to be three characters to have the Top Gear feels, and they do need to play off each other well.
Looks like Jack's wearing some new Reebok classic trainers for this video.
Absolutely!
He has been my favourite since he came on too. Bias because he's closer to my age than Alex though
Should definitely do a full £4800 restore on this one . Will look awesome if in and out are fixed
definetely, all saabs deserves to be saved

I love this idea 💡
It’s actually so impressive seeing how far Jack has come presenting and in his confidence in front of the camera!
This totally needs a full restoration. And you should do a video series on it!
Definitely, had a soft spot for these since my dad had one... Would love to see a full resto!
And drives to the northcape also
YES agree! Now I want to get myself a Saab project
This guy is doing the lord's work maintaining and keeping Saabs. He also seems to know his shit very well. I'm impressed!

thats actually possible coz for the rhd saabs theres so many part outs to get spares from old police cars
Yep with added performance too
Wow, that's some fair pricing on the shop floor! If you proceed to bring it back to live please do it there to give these guys a platform to promote themselves. Every Saab saved counts :' )
A full restoration + a winter trip through the SAAB factory to Kiruna - the northernmost town in Sweden. This would be sweet couple of episodes.
Kiruna?

To be fair you do need to give an F about the cost to continue being able to make safe innovative cars.....
@@chrispalmer5537 that's how they died. They basically made a vauxhall insignia into the SAAB 9-5 and threw more money at it than they could recoup from sales.
The car was truly amazing for the time though.
They died because they didn't give a single F about prices.. The last care they made was super fucking expensive, and very few could afford it.

You don’t see garages trying to save as many cars as possible a lot. A noble cause, not saying that lightly.
Their prices are incredibly reasonable!! I would get all the work done
Ash was a good sport here, loved his humour. Plus, he and Jack's dry humour really bounced off eachother. Really enjoyed this.
Jack is a great presenter! Kudos Car Throttle for realising this! ❤️
I love the fact that you still have this little wagon. These 9-3’s are so cool. My 2010 9-3 2.0 sedan is such a fun car

And a Saab fettled by Ash.
Great video. Class car..
£300 for a driver seat repair? I expected him to say we'll put a secondhand one for £50. You should be able to get a full fresher interior for £300.

swirl flaps, egr, dpf problems are pretty common on every car. Otherwise The Fiat engine is a damn good one.
While this is nine months ago, I'd still really wanna see this Saab do things :)
I’d love to see the Saab get the full, mint repair/resto done on it, it really does deserve it! Would then be great to see it get taken on a good road trip somewhere, totally down for that!! Keep up the great work boys!!
My grans Saab died this year, but it survived 20 years fine!
Jack as lead presenter is Great. Really taken that role as shown in the video 👏👏
