Hi,
I just looked at a 2003 Saab 9-3 Linear with 107K miles. The car drove nice and the body has zero rust spot on the car. This car is has all the options and one (1) owner vehicle. The rear-end was a little weak over some small bumps even though it was replaced last year by Midas, yes, Midas. The total cost is around $1600 for front and rear (ouch).
Anyways, as I pulled in after a 15 minutes test drive and during this whole 15 minutes, the car did not hesitate or any funny stuff. When I opened the hood, I noticed right away that the coolant bottle (reservoir) was bubbling. I thought when you reservoir is bubbling that means that you're for a head gasket soon. Am I wrong about this? Of course, the car sale man doesn't think anything wrong with the car.
What are you thoughts about this car?
Thank you in advance.
Ian
