2000 SAAB 9-5 SE Estate review from UK and Ireland
"A roomy estate with great build quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Leather seat (drivers side) became un-fixed after the SAAB technicians fitted heated seats. Fixed under warranty.
Otherwise nothing has gone wrong.
General comments?
This is a first class cruiser with lots of room and plenty of go when needed and surpisingly economical - the computer regularly suggests 38 - 40 mpg and proper checking between fuel fill-ups have proven it correct.
I recently changed all four tyres for Michelin Primacy W rating at 30,000 miles! Not bad for a front wheel drive turbo-charged car.
