Dear an/o/ns,
I need advice.
I might buy this car next friday after taking it for a testdrive. Tell me everything there is to know and I should be aware of. Thank you!
It's a Saab 9-3 2.0
The price is 999,- EU
Kilometers is 332191
And was build in 1999
From another angle and a shameless selfbump.
Some interior.

only get it if it's a turbo.

Welke dealer?
Typisch,
zat ook te kijken naar 9-3 coupe.
if it is the non Turbo Version I would get it, have had many saabs myself and never had Problems with the non Turbo ones, but if it is the Turbo Version then I wouldnt get it with that high Kilometers, Turbo saabs tend to get expensive fast.
Ovi.rdw.nl says the k's are legit and it has had 2 previous owners. I'd say, if it drives well, go for it. Don't be afraid to ditch it if it starts costing money though.
So if it's a 1999 it will have a t25 turbo which generally is only good for about 120,000 miles.
Plan on it needing to be replaced. A rebuilt t25 is about 300-400 ameridollara. You could take that opportunity to upgrade.
The DIC may need to be replaced, those are 300 ameridollars
Those will be your two big issues. DIC replacement takes 15 minutes. Turbo replacement can be difficult due to rust.

Do that price, expect nothing whatsoever. There's better, more reliable shitboxes to be had, that won't rape your 18yo ass with a 2.0's insurance and running costs.
I'd say do it OP. I've had 4 (one 900, one 9-5 and two viggens) and all I have to say is I'll never buy another brand.
Thank you all thus far. Any more advice is always welcome and appriciated :)
