Skip II is J reg (1990), manual, no DI, 160K miles, 4 OK tyres, full MOT and new exhaust. Water pump, electric ariel and n/s/f wheel bearing all stuffed plus a few minor niggles that will be easily sorted. FULL EDU functionality and oil in the gearbox mind you! She really shouldn't be called Skip because the sunroof works!
Bodywork and interiorwise ('scuse the Americanism), Skip II is a palace compared to Skip. There are virtually no traces of rust or abuse of the interior. SkipII may not be the 'S' model i.e. no leather and stiff lowered suspension but it's the same engine (which hardly delivers Porsche performance to necessitate lowered suspension!). It also does not have a rear windscreen wash/wipe.
I reckoned that the worst that could happen to SkipII was for the engine or gearbox to go bang in which case I would have a spare i.e. Skip becomes a donor for SkipII.
1. Do you reckon SkipII was worth £350?
2. Are the headlinings on all old Saab's manky? if so, what's the best way to spruce them up?
Cheers
