Bought Aero via Autotrader

About 2 years back we came across a 5 speed manual Aero listed in AutoTrader. The car was in New Hampshire and we live in New Jersey. I contacted the owner with a very detailed list of questions re the car's maintenance history and repair record. I also obtained the VIN # and ran it through CarFax. We drove up to NH and had a local Saab dealer perform a pre-purchase inspection on a Saturday morning - car came through very clean with only tires and serpentine belt needing replacement. Car has since been very reliable. Key item is to ask seller for a detailed maintenance history, obtain supporting documentation re repair and maintenacne work, and have a local Saab specialist do a pre-purchase inspection.
Good luck!
