Considering buying a Saab 9-3 convertible.
I test drove it today and I really liked it. It would serve as a second car Which we rarely need) and a bit of summer fun. We need the back seats and the boot space occasionally so that rules out some other options such as the forum favourite MX-5. It's the 1.8L petrol model and seems in good nick. What do I need to know and look out for?
Do I need to keep it covered in winter?
Are parts still readily available? My reading indicates they are.
Any big know issues.
I'd love to hear your experience, good and bad.
Considering buying a Saab 9-3 convertible.
Ive had 2 Saab’s, a standard 9-3 and a 2011 Aero Convertible with the 1.9 twin turbo lump. TBH you wont find a better built vehicle. The build quality was great and i never had an issue with either of them. I only kept the convertible a year but it was a great car. Snapped it up just before they went and scrapped the brand for 20K, only had 60 miles on the clock. It was a cancelled order and was at the right place at the right time, it was 6 months old when i picked it up.

Edit…never kept mine covered over in all winds and weather, had 6 inches of snow over it and it was fine
