So after looking at various cars for ages, about a year in fact! I believe I've finally settled on a 9-3 aero as my next London car. They are really good value for a decent car with lots of kit.


So I was almost set on a 2005 2.0T with around 130K on the clock, but now I have found a newer 2.8T for around the same money but has upwards of 150K miles. Looks in good condition but you never really know until you can have a good look.

Running costs aside would you Saab guys go for a high mileage 2.8 or stick with the relatively safe 4 pot?

Thanks for the info mate, really great stuff!

I think the car I'm looking at has ICM2, which is what the text describes and 7 speakers. However the images show a full sized 'satnav' sized screen along the lines of the ICM3 so I'm not sure if that unit was knackered and was swapped back for the ICM2.

I'll give the place a ring and see whether I can view this weekend.

Thanks a again smile
