I got the old 9-3 started --it has sat for nearly a year-- and it needed a new battery. The old one was about 3 years old and wasn't holding a charge. Alternator is OK, so in went a new batt. The brakes work OK but there's more pedal travel than I like. Not spongy, so am not sure what's up there. Had new rear lines put in a year ago.
I need to do the rollers in the driver's window but overall the old beast isn't bad for a 19 year old car. The AC is dead, but I don't care and with fall coming soon it will be OK. I have winter boots and rims for it, so if I can't resurrect the 9K I'll drive the 9-3 for a while. I did a lot of work on it last year so it isn't terrible, just not a 9K.
At least I have a spare car. Glad now I never got around to selling the 9-3 in the spring.
I love the 9K but am getting tired of working on it and waiting for something else to break. Of course the '99 9-3 may not be a lot better, but it has 50K fewer miles, which may help.
