Refining

March 31, 2021 Eleven

Feels like pass the parcel with my 2 Saabs at the moment as they go back and forth to Malcolm Miles to iron out any remaining issues. I swapped them over again this morning and now have the 9-3 back for a few days, it's had it's Stage 3 remap done by Karl at Noob Tune, a bottom ball joint replaced, Hirsch pedal set fitted and throttle body removed and cleaned to stop to over revving issue.

But the most rewarding change of all comes in the form of the new flat bottomed Nappa leather steering wheel crafted by TunStyle, having had a number of genuine Hirsch wheels in the past, this is as close as you can get to a new one in 2021. Beautifully sculptured with amazing materials and craftsmanship, it truly makes the car feel like new. Out of interest, I dug around in my Saab vs. archives for an image of my original Hirsch 9-3 to compare the two wheels, even after studying them both, I honestly can’t see any discernible difference; great work TunStyle.

Next week the 9-3 will be heading in for its body refresh, which will be the final stage of bringing this beautifully iconic convertible back to fine fettle again.
