The Appeal
There’s nothing quite like a Saab, Sweden’s brilliantly esoteric manufacturer of aeroplanes and automobiles. This particular 9-3 is smartly presented in silver paint with a grey leather interior.
And it features a convertible softtop roof, making it ideal for use on sunny sumer’s afternoons. The body panels look to be in good condition and the interior is well preserved for its age and mileage.
So don’t hesitate to put something a little different on your driveway, something like this Saab 9-3.
