I bought a second-hand '99 9-5 Sport Wagon, 2.3 lpt, auto tranny w/ 37K on it a little over a year ago. It was still under factory warranty for 6 months after purchase. According to the dealer sheet, nothing major had ever gone wrong with this car. During the six months of factory warranty that I had, the SID display was replaced (missing pixels), the turbo unit (blue smoke) was replaced, the latest PVC update was done, and both front door panels were replaced due to the leather trim peeling around the door lock pulls. In the past 8 months out of factory warranty (currently at 51K), the car has been a gem. I did purchase an extended warranty from my independent which will cover major things (even the DI cassette) for $1,000. Spend the money and have the car gone over by a reputable dealer or independent. Best of luck and Happy Saabing!
