I've had my 99 Viggen for just about two years, and it has been quite reliable. The CPS went out when I was on the highway, but from what I've seen, that seems to be a fairly common thing with the older 9-3's. All I've done in my two years is change oil and put on the PCV 6 update.
I'm not sure about how I'd feel not having records on the car. Mine came with an overflowing folder of everything done to the car, all the way down to having trim pieces replaced. And also, the exterior and interior were both immaculate, minus a rust bubble on the wheel well. I got mine for $5700 with 116k on the clock, so you could probably do a bit better regarding the pricing. I'd say a fair price for what you described, if the records are available and everything checks out, would be around $5500.
No records, and I'm not sure how I'd feel about making the purchase. Do you know if it has had synthetic oil for its lifetime that has been changed every 5000 miles? This is probably one of the most important things to ensure the longevity of the car. If it has not had this, don't even bother.
Good luck,
Nick
