Hi I'm considering coming back to SAABs from a forray into the BMW world. For the immediate term, I'm thinking of buying a 9-5 2.3 Aero Auto, which has covered 115,000 miles. (built in 2000) I hear that the turbos are stronger, as is the gearbox on the auto 9-5. Can anyone agree or disagree with this? What should I be looking out for?? I hear that a replacement turbo would be around £500 fitted, as would a gearbox overhaul. How about the price of a catalytic converter? Is there anything which is prone to 'going' on these cars, at this age / mileage. Cheers Paul
