    Good Points: 210BHP on tap with little lag from the turbo. Power delivery is smooth and when driven proper v little torque steer. The balance of the car in bends is v nice. The seats/controls are all good with long journey's not a problem.


    Bad Points: The stereo units are extremely poor. The sound quality can inly be described as 1970's tinny crackle. Fuel consumption is not bad is Safed style of throttle input adopted.


    General comments: Overall, as this is the first Saab I have owned I am very pleased with the package having driven some 'HOT' Saabs hard I was fearful of an overpowered go kart however the 93 aero 210 is a nice bit of kit.

    Great looking car and very comfortable. Acceleration isn't bad considering how much it weighs although at speed it feels a little light and twitchy. Suffers from torque steer if you drive it hard. It drinks fuel even if driven sensibly. My average was 26MPG and that was combined! I had to take it back to the dealer roughly twice a month to get it fixed (thankfully under warranty) but it can take 2 weeks to get it booked in to a dealer as they are so busy which I guess speaks for itself. Service ...

    The Saab 9-3 Sport Saloon Aero 2.0T is a very good long distance high speed cruiser. It is no good for around-town driving if you want any form of fuel economy.

    I have had some good comments on its looks. I have had a dozen BMW's and would prefer to remain with another Saab, except for the cost of ownership i.e. fuel mpg and depreciation.

    Reliability and dealer service is first class. Saab got this model right.

    On the whole, not a great car but an alternative to the car park full of BMW's that I park in!

    Has reasonable performance (can be made to look silly by a 330D, pretty much any day of the week) has a pleasing interior, and people do comment on it's looks, but sadly turbo lag, has put paid to me getting another

    Had it a year now and loaded it with extras. On the road for £29K (so not cheap).

    The Saab 9-3 Sport Saloon Aero 2.0T is a very good car. Having test driven it rivals (BMW 330, A4 3.0 Quattro, CLK240) it won hands down. It is comfortable to drive, quick, well equiped and looks good (and you don't see too many on the roads!).
    Granted the A4 was better on the handling, but when looking at CO2 (as most Company Car Drivers will) the Saab has eceptional emissions (207cc for 210BHP!!)
