50,000 km per year is quite a bit of mileage, though overall it isn't too bad. Still will have quite a bit of life left. Aside from the usual things (have Saab mechanic that has no interest in the sale check it out, check service record for completeness), the turbo isn't as bad as it used to be. While the engine runs a bit hotter, the revs tend to be lower since the torque is available quite low and for most driving this will keep the engine below 3-4000 rpm in normal driving.
