UKSaabs

Thought I'd go for a little walk in London today. Started from Maida Vale and ended up in Pimlico, taking a rather indirect route via Bayswater and Notting Hill. Found these:







Also spotted a couple of Citroens and an ex Reading Mainline Routemaster, but I'll post those in their own thread.

Goodness that 5dr c900 is the same colour as mine, le mans blue. (very nice colour) Going by the wheels I'd say that's an XS (anorak on) but mine has 3-spokes.

I exchanged waves and flashing lights with the driver of a 2 door c900 aero in Cumbernauld the other night.....very cool.

I should have had a look at the badges, but was getting funny looks! I'll have another look next week - assuming it lives there.

Black 9-3 Aero in tesco car park burnley parked next to mine when i got back

Semi Slick Tyres on the back

spotted in Cosham on friday, sometime after 11am c900i Dxxx ULG



and not five mins later (must have been the day for classic cars to go out and about) this:



yup, it's the 1750 Maxxi version

Saw a metallic beigey colour (citrin?) D reg 5-door c900 at the Queen Alexandra this morning, also around 11am-ish.

saw a ng900 black vert in edinburgh yesterday, JIW was the start of plate.......needs lowering and some nicer alloys. also a stack of aeros in various guises outside holyrood.

midday mk1 9-5 aero saloon siliver, holkem to wells road north norfolk

Saw a 'D' plate 900i in Derby earlier today, brownish gold colour and looking a bit scabby.

Not really 'on topic', but there was a very tidy looking A reg XR4i on the A15 roundabout on the northside of the bridge this aft with very thin (wolfrace?) wheels and a bit of a painting with the old tread paint on them.

Didn't think they still existed on the roads these days, just in enthusiasts garages

Spotted yesterday at about 1pm on the A1067 a blue c900 heading East and in Fakenham about 3pm a green c900 SE on a K parked near ST Peters Church and also in Fakenham three 9-3's and a couple of 9-5's

Saturday, bout 11am on M4 westwards, a 9000 CS P*** OAV with some stuff on the roof rack.



About 10mins further on a black 9-5 Aero saloon, heavily laden and at least four-up.....looked like it was on the rear bump stops

Just before Bristol, a black P-reg GM900 passed us, and was then later seen on the hard shoulder just before the bridge - traffic prevented me from getting accross to stop anywhere near close

On the way back on sunday:

R-reg 9-3 at Membury services



05-plate 9-5 eastbound somewhere near Slough....this was also seen on the hard shoulder shortly afterwards.....what is it with Saabs these days?



V-reg 9-3 southbound (anti-clockwise) on the m25



and a very nice looking D-reg Esprit

Got the 'Saab wave' from a Yellow Viggen vert in the westbound A14 on the way home from school last night. Left at the same junction as me.............

Finally got a wave today.

S777*** coming out of Bradford.

Made my day, Hope it's someone on here.

Nope

I was passed by a very nice looking Graphite Grey F reg c900 Carlsson on the A40 (Northolt) around 9.30pm this evening. Think he came off at Ruislip.

Anyone on here?

Shame that none of them look particularly well cared for.

Followed a nice looking Silver 9000 Aero (R***FOJ) along Cheltenham road in Gloucester this evening, about 730pm? Proper low profile rims on her, pretty sure they weren't stock!

Also saw what I think was a 96, mustard coloured, in Stroud last week but didn't get the plate or a look at the driver.

Anyone else live in Gloucester?!

Saw quite a tidy looking white c900 vert with the top down this evening, driving north on the M25 just before J29. I was going the same direction and slowed down and craned my neck to have a look, made eye contact, but I had to exit at J29 so didn't get a chance to wave, take a photo, note the reg, or anything like that.

Quite rare that I see older Saabs around here, so was nice...and a T16 vert at that!

Me!

There's a (very, maybe it's black) dark green 9000 aero in kingsholm, and I was in tuffley last week where there was also a nice aero 9k, with maptun sticker, next to the scout hall.

Where abouts is the 'scout hall' on the 9000 then?
