Work Hack Advice - '54 9-3 2.0t

[Dan S]

The missus needs a shed to get her through the winter and I want to avoid the usual mondeo/vectra/laguna dullness.

Hows this look? and is it a potential wallet rapist?

Going to view at weekend so any pointers welcome.

or perhaps a 9-5?

In my opinion, if your missus doesn't mind the extra size of the 9-5 (the rear parking sensors help a lot)-its a better all round car. Not all will agree though...

Shes not a bad driver

Going to go and see tomorrow and check out the history.

9-5 a nicer, more comfortable place to be in; 9-3 a surprisingly agile handler - although the steering manages to mask that to an extent on one side - but has more than a faint whiff of GM cost cutting inside. Check for interior creeks and rattles on the 9-3; they vary quite a bit in that respect. Seats are jolly nice on both, though.

9-5 every time - better ride, more comfortable, more Saabness, better built. Having had both, I'd have another 9-5 like a shot, I'd avoid a 9-3.

Thanks.

Thoughts on this.

Expolice so probably hammered but cheapy cheap. Can I expect a visit from Big Bill?
