At 200k I don't think you'll see much money as a trade, or private sale. Might not be a bad idea to look around and see what you might want for your next car so you are ready, but if all is running well, keep driving it until you hit a major problem. Then sell it for parts, or junk it.
I have a similar issue, except on round 1 of major repairs.
I have 116k on my '01 and now starting to think if I want to worry about waterpump, turbo, clutch, etc...
I sold my 2000 with over 150k with the only major repair being the turbo, however my now 11 year old has lived its life outside in Vermont and rust may become a big issue before too long.
All these liquidation prices on new saabs certainly has my interest.
