What kind of mileage is considered "low"? Few sub £3k Hot Aero 04-05 cars listed on autotrader but all around 150K miles. If you bought something like that, are they going to last or is a case of doing a decent amount of preventative measures to get them over the hump?

All depends if the current owner have done the services and what else have been done on it in the last 2500miles.
It's nearing a potential hefty sum if they haven't been looked after right.
This isn't half bad actually - https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202101298470592?radius=1500&postcode=wn23tn&sort=relevance&make=SAAB&advertising-location=at_cars&onesearchad=New&onesearchad=Nearly%20New&onesearchad=Used&include-delivery-option=on&model=9-5&page=2
This would need some TLC but the price is fair for an autodealer - https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202101208168357?include-delivery-option=on&radius=1500&postcode=wn23tn&sort=relevance&make=SAAB&advertising-location=at_cars&model=9-5&onesearchad=New&onesearchad=Nearly%20New&onesearchad=Used&page=2
Have a look around your area for a Saab indy, if it were to break on you, you have someone with knowledge to mend it for you.
Also, 9-5 owners only group on FB is a great place to ask questions. Lots of UK based members.

2005 is the last gen of the OG 9-5. Best by far imo. The '06-> is an aquired taste and is full on GM/Opel plastics in the cockpit. The 06-10 Aero is quick though. 270hp out the gate.
04/05 has the second facelift (sharktooth) front which is just the best looking front..
So try to find a low milage 2004/05 Aero Sport Combi and throw in a Stage 1 Noobtune (if in UK) and you're golden.
