9-3 Convertible

[Pistachio]

Looks pretty nice and maybe worth a look but I would get it HPI checked first.
Have you thought about this

Its not an Aero - it's a vector model car. Wrong car description!!

I know it was meant as a idea and a possible link to a better quality younger car with less outlay ….no real need for exclamation marks

I have a July 05 Aero rag top with a 5 speed box. I have seen 55 plate models with a 6 speed box, so I assume the change to a 6 speed box took place in late 05?

How do you tel the difference?

The Aero is lower, but not easy to see if you don't have 2 side by side.

If I am not mistaken The Aero has a Turbo guage, but the Linear doesn't, but stand to be corrected!

Largre front disc's?

Mine has 'AERO' on the kick plates on drivers and passenger side.

Also has an 'AERO' badge on the back

I have just lifted the bonnet, but no obvious badges etc to be seen.

Mine has a large exhaust coming straight out through the body kit, again, if I am not mistaken, on the Linear, it has a turned down pipe that you can't see?

Rear spoiler, but again, this can be addede as part of the AERO body kit.

Yes, top of right circle, fuel guage at the bottom if that makes sence.

Had another thought. Although both cars will have leather seats, the Aero will have sports seats, often 2 colours of leather, I think Saab refer to it as 'Partchment'?

Does this generation of 9-3 suffer from the same firewall crack problem as the previous generation?

I had a year 2000 93 convertible and the clutch and turbo go about 90000 miles and are very expensive, would love a 2 year old with 20000 miles though
