1999 SAAB 9-3 SE Turbo Convertible review from UK and Ireland
"Definitely for cruising on sunny days"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
Cracking 185bhp allows for very safe overtaking anywhere over 50mph - comfort and safety on the motorway making long journeys a pleasure.
Soft suspension makes for wallowing on country roads but the whir of the turbo brings a grin to your face everytime.
Deceptively big boot space, ample for weekend kit plus golf clubs.
