1999 SAAB 9-3 SE review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The alarm horn short circuited within a few weeks, and I still get random messages on the computer saying 'service theft alarm'. It needed 2 new shocks at the back to 'cure' a clonking from the rear.... it didn't and it still clonks like something is loose.
General comments?
Generally OK, disappointed with performance, particularly with the climate control on and I don't think the build quality is all it's cracked up to be. I like the car's character and I don't think there is another car in the world with such comfortable seats.
