2008 S40 T5 AWD - opinions please
Discussion
Looking for a new car at the moment and randomly stumbled across a 2008 S40 T5 AWD in my price bracket. These are relatively rare in Aus and certainly refreshing to find as a multiple ex Saab owner.
So, went and looked it over. Good bodywork, lots of kit, full history, drove nicely and although I’m not a huge auto fan, I could be turned.
I did notice the engine was tappy sounding on the top at idle, is this common for the 5 pot? But, it roared quite nicely when pushed and didn’t seem hesitant or troublesome power wise.
Anything I should look out for or be wary of?
Cheers!
