Used Saab Cars for Sale near Milton, ON

This review is for the 2001 Viggen Convertible. This car is very stylish for the early 2000s and was a fair attempt by Saab to make a competitor to the M3 and S4. Unfortunately the performance aspect of this car is hindered by its front wheel drive set up and suspension configuration. The punchy acceleration is great but the torque steer in the lower gears is a hinderance. The seats are comfortable but are very commonly worn at this point. The convertible tops are prone to water leaks and issues with the hydraulic system at this age. My recommendation would be to get a hatchback version of this car. Most of them will need restored at this point and watch out for rust holes in the floors. Overall I would recommend for a Saab enthusiasts collection but not as a budget track car.

I have owned several of these 9-5s, excellent comfortable and quick vehicles. If you are interested in Saabs and you can find a clean rust free 9-5 you will not be disappointed. The 2008 aero trim provides comfortable bolstered seats and plenty of power. Be warned, as these cars are approaching 20 years old at this point, most of them will need lots of refurbishment, if you are a DIY, then this is a great project to be had for under 5000. This is the kind of car that should be maintained by someone who knows Saabs if you do not work on your vehicles. Parts availability is still decent for the 9-5, all of the maintenance parts are cheap and fairly easy to install. The pitfalls of this iteration are rust, especially in the rear wheel arch, foggy headlights, poor interior quality especially tears in the seats, most cars still have their original suspension and motor mounts which will lead to sloppy ride and a commonly misdiagnosed oil leak from the chain tensioner seals. Overall I would highly recommend this car if you can find a clean example. I would budget around 2000 for annual maintenance.

I have owned two manual 9-3 Aeros. Both were front wheel drive sedans. These are great economical package if you want performance, comfort and a sharp design, without the reliability issues of its German competitors such as the E90 335i or B7 A4. This is a car that you could take on a road trip and not get tired driving in. The layout of the interior is very driver friendly and is easy to operate. Parts availability is not an issue with this Saab, most parts are still available new, and used parts are plentiful. If you do not work on cars yourself, take this to someone who knows Saabs, if your mechanic does not own or know what a Tech2 is, dont let him touch your car. The flaws of the car I would have to say are the shifter, its very notchy and feels more clunky compared to other front wheel drive cars and the interior is more prone to rattling with age. Overall I would recommend if you are looking for a comfortable, classy used car that stands out from the crowd.

Very reliable and runs very smoothly. Would recommend to new drivers

Engine can accumulate thousands of miles trouble-free, turbo must be well maintained. Give a close look to the various seals and probable oil leaks. Performance is there, handling not bad. If seeking economy, look elsewhere. Turbo is thirsty for gasoline.
