Regarding sludge, I would make sure the car has had the oil changed every 5K and the other services have been done. They extended the warranty to 8 yrs/100K for sludge. It isn't a common issue, and it isn't just a Saab issue.
As for auto vs. manual, you have to get what you like. I've had three Saabs, '89 9000S, '95 9000CS, and '02 Aero SW, all 5 sp. manual. I just had my car in for the 60K service, and I had a new 9-5 loaner for the day. Basically my car but four years newer. I couldn't wait to get mine back, #1 the Aero brakes are far better, #2 I love the sport seats (in '02 Aero and newer) and #3 I really missed my 5 sp. The auto doesn't do anything for me, but everyone has their own opinion. 5 sp. Aero wagons are pretty rare.
Good Luck,
AeroLady
