    Saab 9-5 Vetor SE 2011

    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

    Welcome Jamie and congrats with your new Saab. What's the model year and number of miles?

    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?
