    Just buying my Saab 9 5 !

    Hello everyone, I am just in the process of collecting my (almost) new sabb 95 Vector SE from Cambridge...I absolutely love this car and wanted to ask if there are any things I need to check for before I drive away? are there any recalls or quality issues to look out for?

    Thanks

    Jamie

    I haven't heard about any quality issues or recalls for this second generation 9-5. But I am not an expert so that doesn't mean there aren't any.

    I emailed that 2010 UK brochure to you and hope you received it. Not sure why it wasn't working from the Downloads for you.

    A silver Vector diesel with navigation.. yeah, I am jealous as well. Awesome car.

    Perhaps a silly question but... how are you liking your 9-5 so far? What's the fuel mileage with the diesel engine?
