Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Performance and seering. 2.0 Aero with Hirsch package and 250 hp literally low flying. Fantastic quiet, comfortable, although bends perfectly balanced suspension with rear wheel steering our roads is a little bit too hard (a good investment - Koni FSD shock absorbers - it puts everything in perspective). A wide range of equipment - leather interior, navigation, 6 CD changer, automatic gearbox, Bi-xenon headlamps, etc. Also, as bearable SAAB trivia Night Panel, keys in middle of place won't disappear.
Cons: Aero package has hard suspension, potential gearbox defects in early models (2003 -2004.), fuel consumption

Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: I own this car for a year and only in rear brake blocks was changed. Compact, but also quite a spacious car, compared with Audi A4. Space for two child seats + one adult in back. Very quietly working petrol engine, I'm surprised for turbo engine relatively small fuel consumption. On average, its 5.9 -7.4 l / 100 km. Very good high beam lights. When I'll buy another car, this one will leave as spare family car, because it is too good to sell at a low price.
Cons: Suspension could be stronger. The original car audio system is quite average. Weak low beam lights.

Would NOT recomend this car to the friend
Pros: A relatively reliable car, practically never failed. Good to go, but did better than others? Don't know if it is.
Cons: Consumption is very large. The highway at 90 cruising 8 litres are hard to get, through city very calmly drove well, if 15 is - its great. Large tax, expensive details, expensive repairs for so old, but at same time, quite a rudimentary car. Or buy again? 100% no, mostly due to fuel consumption.
