Today we have a 2004 Saab 9-5 Arc Estate. Translated that means Swedish wagon.
Our seller tells us this car runs but does have a minor coolant leak that requires it to be topped off every six months.
There are 180,000 miles on it and the seller has done major work such as replacing the front suspension, alternator, and A/C compressor.
Apparently, some of the paint is faded, too.
If you want a cheap Swede wagon, you can pony up $1,750 for this car. It's located in Maryland.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

- SCE to AUX I can't warm up to the new look. Still prefer my 22 SF.
- SCE to AUX I guess the direct sales stores weren't polled. Unless dealers are going out of business, I don't feel one bit sorry for them. They should most fear the mfrs who are eager to get rid of them, reducing costs and increasing customer satisfaction.
- Buickman trade frequently!
- Lou_BC I guess I should pry all of the logos off my vehicle. That is a form of advertising. Anyone wearing 'branded" clothing?
- Loser Ve few people understand the importance of rotating the air in your tires every 5,000 mile. Then at 20,000 you need to remove the stale air in your tires and install fresh air.
