That headlight has a motor?

Hi Martin, I'll hope you will take off the sideskirts. Rockers are known to rust even on good looking cars, low mileage cars. I know!

Hi Martin, water in the boot area is often caused by the seals in the rear light units leaking, your rust issues are quite typical, mine was slightly worse than yours, it is all fixable, good luck.

Check brake lines. I had to replace a lot. Nice find! Good that you’ve got the abbot racing reinforcement! Also recommend the crossbar in the engine bay .

Nice to see someone putting a Vig back on the road. Keep us posted!

The last viggen I seen for sale here in Oz as listed at $22,000

I'm surprised cause I thought Beryl may have gone to the scrappers...

Hi Martin, most of them are rusty underneath, if you want to asses the true condition underneath it is a good idea to remove the sill covers and bumpers, you will probably find rust.

Thank you! As it happens, I was chatting to Peter only yesterday - such a nice and knowledgeable chap . Thank you for taking the time to recommend him, though!

Hi Martyn just as a helpful tip if you need any bits for the Viggen, I would recommend Raw Saab as they have a passion for the Viggen & no doubt would be very helpful. Best of luck.

Wow wondered who bought this off eBay. You got an absolute bargain im really regretting not buying this myself. However looking forward to watching your videos on it. From the photos underside looked good but wants the usual welding doing on the floor depressions and bung holes. Rear shock mount tops looked like another area and brake lines. Worth taking side skirts off and seeing how much the sill ends have rotted. Drivers side rear usually goes dont know why passenger usually seems better. Mot history sounded like welding had already been done on front arches at bottom. Take arch liners out and inspect for rot anything coming though on the strut tops will be from the inside out where seam sealer has failed and rust started. Big one bulkhead and chassis leg area in lower corners. Even if it wants a fair bit of work i think you've done well here 👍

Nice looking car. I’d do a careful check of the firewall around where the steering column passes through from the cabin. It was a known weak spot on Cavaliers and OG9-3 (&900) we had both of ours in period reinforced by SAAB under a quality claim - whilst out of warranty because they had Full SAAB s/h they did it. Look forward to following how you get on with this one.

Following: 2001 Viggen convertible daily driver owner for 13 years (on top of my 1991 900 SPG garage queen). They are wonderful cars.

Nice car

Strange that he says he can’t get brake disks. There are many brands of disks widely available for the classic 900.

How do you attach the gear knob.

With respect just a bit of unnecessary added tat.

About to the same. Thanks for the video.

Thank you. Its been great series. Watched every episode from start to finish. Lots of great info and tips!

What is the point on those membranes in doors?

Surprisingly Tolerant Wife. Most would have Laughed and Told you to send it to the scrapper.. immediately.

Seems like the wrong shift knob? And the climate control shouldn't have been just a S6+ thing. They even had it on the earlier 100 CS from like '91. But this car is in great shape. And don't worry about missing the airbox cover. Like 99% of them are missing it. You bought it just to sell it?

Nice video but have a problem

Thanks to both for keeping the updates coming

The new owner is really getting stuck in which is good to see….

Martyn, Consider Audi S8 Mk 1 rims. There is a cover that goes on the top of the airbox to dress it. It breaks easily when removing it so they are always missing, but have a look at an original Audi press shot of the engine bay to see one. It finishes the airbox beautifully and is worth searching for. Audi may still have a few in stock. Replace all of the rusty screws and bolts under the front of the engine bay, and replace the snapped plastic cover for the injectors. They're always broken because people lean on the middle of the the cover when the metal parts of the engine are too hot for them to touch. Very nice example of the model. Well wear. You'll be hard pressed to find another as good as this at this stage.

Intresting, does these spacers will work also for 4 pot Brembo, from touareg?

Big brakes those Martyn. What are you going to do with the rears?

Hello there from Portugal, I'm just looking for a nice tone muffler for my car. Something a bit more sporty than stock, which is very quiet. What kind of muffler do you have on it? Cheers

Хорошо сохранилась) приятно было посмотреть

Heya Martyn, really happy I found your page, it' sbeen great viewing as I looked to buy a saab 900. Is it possible to get a link to the carpet mats you bought?

Thank you for sharing :)

Hello from across the pond in the US. Beautiful S6 Avant. I have a pearl 93 S4 sedan and have had a few S6 Avants. This one is spot on. Good upgrades, I have the same taste in OEM+ approach. Would love the info on the 18z caliper bracket. I just adjusted my 034 shifter too. Keep the updates coming because this a a fantastic machine

Looks a nice upgrade that Martyn 👍 You know you'll buy some new wheels 🤣🤣🤣

Good to see this Beryl getting a through makeover. Hopefully a t5 upgrade is on the cards.

wrap the lights with bubble wrap! i was moving my 9k parts around and stupidly cracked a headlight.

Thanks for the update!

Progressing well fella 👍

Nice little upgrade there Martyn 👍

Just discovered your channel. Nice to see another older Audi apprenticed! It's looking great, hope it features more!

Hey Martyn. Great to see your channel - loved the 9000 Aero - always wanted one. I had a 1988 2 door 900 Turbo 8 valve as an 18 year old and loved it for 2 years and then had other cars then bought a 9000 2.0 Turbo for a bit then a few years later after again a couple of different cars had a 9000 CDE LPT. Now I've just turned 50 I'm really wanting to get back into a SAaB as a hobby car - preferably a 900 Turbo 2 or 4 door as I always preferred the squared off rear light clusters than the 3 door - maybe if you've got time you could get in touch if you know anyone that might be interested in selling Thanks 🙂

Great cars 🚗 👌 👍

Beautiful! In the market for a set of those mud flaps…where did you get them from?

Glad to see you on the go again, Galvanized bodies on these , is that right Martyn

Looking superb, Martyn! 👌 Gutted I wasn’t in the best position to buy this at the time but equally so glad to see you’ve still got it and it’s getting some love it greatly deserves 👍👍

Looking very sound Martyn 👌

Martyn this is great news, well done 👍

Is it possible for you to get your hands on a new S6 plus grill, I’ve been looking for one for awhile?

Awesome car.... It's so special... in GB, you did not get the S6 Plus, but you got a S6 2.2 20V with all the special S6 Plus specs. -Black roof S6 Plus -black trims until roof S6 Plus -black glossy outside B, C Pillars, grille, roof rails, door opener inside -odometer S6 Plus -S6 Plus rims -leather alcantara seats Do you know if that package neede to be ordered separately or do all S6 from 1996/97 have the S6 Plus parts? I wished, all other S4 and S6 got these parts. I changed all in my 93 S4 also into S6 Plus. only the seats and odometer is still from the S4.

Great job, i have one of these berly green babies here in Australia, 1990 no abs which is a blessing, A-Zperformance in Budapest do an excellent replica two piece whale tail, anyhow good luck with everything…
