The most common thing to look for is interval of oil changes by previous owner(s) (if available)--because "sludge" was a prime concern for 01' to 02' Saabs. The pickup tube screen in the oil pan bakes the oil from the catalytic converter and clogs it up, thus seized motor). There was a recall by Saab and had mine done at no charge. Make sure you are using Full-Synethic oil (M1 0-40 is recommended, but others are available even diesel oil Rotella 5-40). There was a recall for steering rack replacement, PC upgrade and DIA cassette which were the most important. Also, rust on the outer front side rear well--mine was redone at 175K with Bondo. Other than normal wear, i can't think of anything else. Good Luck!
