as you seem to be resident Master SAAB, you want to link a couple more of these mate? Think you've swayed a few people this way.

Hehehe, sure thing!

2003 HOT 9-5 Estate

1 owner of these HOT Aeros is a fairly rare thing.
Hit him up to check if he's changed the camchain and chain tensioner. Check to see that the oil has been changed on the set intervals (1250miles) and that it's the right 5W30 synthetic and not any mineral oils. This goes for all HOT Saabs.
Check if he's done the PCV upgrade and if so when?
From '04 Saab upgraded the PCV Crankcase ventilation and mitigated sludge building in the sump pan.

So this '03 is a bit of a gamble. I'd say haggle.

I'll return with more tomorrow.

How much work has gone into this new one you bought?

Insane amounts. But only on the engine and trans side. Rest is stock or thereabouts.

This Black one looked one of the tidiest from the ones I saw and the one owner, FSH detail looked good too. I like the look of the earlier cars better too. Not keen on the shape of the lights on the 07 Gen car you linked first.
