You snatched the car right under my nose. I planned to check the car two days later. You made an amazing deal and I‘m looking forward to new episodes about this beauty.
Jonas Kakarikas This was the right choice. I still search for a nice 9-5 NG with a Diesel engine. They became very rare and very expensive even when they are in really bad shape. I‘m also looking into Volvo S80 as an alternative now. They aren’t as cool as the 9-5 but the prices are far more reasonable and my girlfriend likes the 8-speed automatic from the last facelift.
@@blobblobby3517 Just don't get the Volvo s80 as an alternative option. It really is not that special, although those are relatively rare in Germany. If you decide to go with a Volvo, buy the new S90 which is way better-built car than these 2007-2015 S80's. Creeks and rattles come with the S80 because of its body that isn't the most rigid one. Of course, the S80 D5 is really reliable and cheap to run but it is boring. I happen to have 2013 S80 D5 AWD with 585k km's and it has been bulletproof. It's just a car that you daily drive, nothing more.
miskavaa Thanks for your insight. The S80 is in some aspects superior to the 9-5. The old D5 is reliable, the new D4/5 very efficient and the 8-speed automatic is better than any trasmission Saab ever used. Sadly most 9-5 are way to expensive in Germany for a 10 years old car with no reliable supply of spare parts, high insurance costs and technology, that mostly wasn‘t up to date even back in 2010. I love the design and the philosophy of Saab but you can buy a really nice Mercedes for the price of a acceptable 9-5 and my girlfriend barely tolerates the spending for my 9000 😅🙈
What an amazing addition to your fleet Jonas love the colour.and the panoramic sunroof. Can't wait to see what plans you have for this 9-5 .all the best Jonas
Hej Jonas, very nice clip and a great car! My Congrets :-) In addition to a Sonett III and a 2-stroke 95, I have a 2010s 95 NG TID and I‘m happy with it. Keep on SAABin. Hälsningar från Tyskland Olly
Thanks Jonas I really enjoy your video,, I live in Madrid Spain and I have a SAAB - 95 VECTOR 2. 0 TTID,, biturbo (190 CV) Year 2011 august, also similar than yours,, black and I usually drive 800 km from Madrid to the south coast and is enough,, then is better to stdp and go to rest anyway congratulation for your new car... I wait for your next video....
My dream would be to get an NG in this spec one day, you’re a lucky man! Stunning car, thanks for the video and will keep up on the progress. Subscribed and can’t wait for more videos :)
Hi Jonas, I'd been planning on coming over to 'borrow' the Aero but I think I'll wait to see what you do with the new one! Something cool and interesting no doubt.
The White NG looks stunning in White and you have put a lot of time, effort and love into it so far, but cars always look sportier and meaner in black!!👌👍😁😁😁🇬🇧
Beautiful car - can you let me know your average mpg please? Just bought a 2010 TTiD 9-5 and am only getting average 39mpg which seems low even though it includes lots of motorway driving at 75mph
In Germany it's illegal to wash your car at home due to concerns about groundwater pollution, so the only real option to make sure your car is washed carefully is to use a proper detailer which is expensive. Most cars (even those owned by enthusiasts) get washed at the car wash and end up with those little scratches. I think that's the case in quite a few countries now. Understandable, but annoying for someone who wants to baby their car! 😁
What's the name of the song that starts at 7:11? By the way, nice 9-5! I have a 2011 9-5 Turbo4 Premium with Hirsch stage 1. It makes me look forward to long drives, but not quite 16 hours.
Är nyare saabar lika bra kvalité / hållbara som tidigare saabar? Eller har GM lagt sig i för mycket nyare saabar? Fun fact. Min saab 95 vector kombi årsmodell 2003 var från Tyskland. Riktigt snygg bil förövrigt. :)
GM gav Saab en bottenplatta, sen tycker jag Saab har gjort sin grej. Tex en insignia är inte samma bil även om dom har mängder med delar gemensamt. Alla fel med ng9-5 är vida kända så accepterar man bara dom bristerna är det kanonfina bilar 👍
@@JonasKakarikas Oja. Jag har kört (Övningskört) nya bilar årligen och inget slår saab i komfort. Otrolig bil om man ger den en chans. Självklart är bristerna ett litet pris att betala. Jag har snarare lärt mig en del om bilar tack vare detta. Jag slängde in en steg 1a hos BSR och bilen är både snålare och piggare. Jag kan rekommendera att köra in lite ljudisolering i dörrarna. BRL hade 75% rea så hela bilen kostade 500kr att ljuddämpa. Otrolig skillnad i komfort.
Wao! Menudo viaje Jonas! El coche luce precioso y está fenomenal. ¿Qué es lo que te hizo decantarte por esta unidad tan lejos de tu casa? ¿Y que piensas hacer con tanto coche? Vas a tener que montarte un negocio de compraventa... 😜😜👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Brilliant car 👌😎🤘 Is the color 170 or 298? We have 170 NG9-5TTiD Linear, manufactured 2011-03-10. Even though the accessories of the car are pretty poor, there are only 33 Linear TTiDs made in 2011 👌😎🤘
Wow, cool 👌😎👍 When I was about to purchase NG9-5 in October 2018, I had two alternatives: 298 TiD and 170 TTiD. Decided to purchase the latter one. Our NG9-3CV is 298 but from the distance you cannot really distinguish whether the cars are 170 or 298. They both look black. If you go near then you can see the difference.
Even though it might sound a little implausible now - I became a real fan of your work and your fascination for Saab cars. Keep up the good content. :)
Its so sad that they only made so few of those because of the bankruptcy, if they still where alive and made those I probably would have driven one today.
@@JonasKakarikas Jonas, in Ireland UK only 2 at min areo Black with 170,000 miles £5000 and silver 100,000 miles £6500 ( not km). Just wondering how these right hand drives compare price wise to Europe in general ? Be really interested in your opinion?
What year is that saab? 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪...I have a 2016 Volvo S60 made in Sweden, this was the last year before china baught the rights to make it in China...shame... I'm half swedish 🇸🇪 half German 🇩🇪 euro pride
Carl Wallin Spoke to my sales at Volvo Dealership, the only built in China for North America is S90 and XC 60. S60 in states, others still built in Europe. As long as every factory still follow the Volvo High Standard, for me it is all the same quality. I like the your 2016 s60, the T6 and T5 engine feels more better the current one.
