Saab 95 estate 2009 1.9 tid - Saab 95 used - dealer prices - rob352

I have been looking around for a good used 95 estate and was hoping to see a number on the market by now as P/Xs with the new car being released in September. This does not seem to be the case however, with few cars showing up on searches, and those that do come up being way over the Parkers Guide prices. What is happening with this model at present? Is there a lack of cars on the market due to poor sales of the new car, or did they sell so few in 2008/9 that they are rare on the current market? What is a realistic price for the model quoted above with average mileage? What is likely to happen to prices when the new 95 estate eventually arrives?

thanks

I suspect that the new 95 estate will substantially more expensive than the "old" version, so what happens is anybody's guess.

There is no new 9-5 estate yet released, so there is unlikely to be a glut of old model estates as yet. As for prices, take a look at www.markarnold.co.uk/index.php , a well-regarded Saab specialist, he has a few diesel estates in stock - even if not exactly what you are looking for, you'll get an idea of price.

You might like to browse on www.saabscene.co.uk, a forum for Saab enthusiasts. Someone there will probably be able to give you some idea of the sort of target price you might need to pay for what you are looking for.

thanks for the reply, I have had a look at the Mark Arnold site and the prices there are certainly more in line with what I was expecting having looked a Parkers guide prices. I also like the ethos he is portraying on his site, so will certainly keep an eye on his stocklist. The savings on his prices should more than offset the lack of the SAAB direct warranty, which I have found to be very comprehensive in the past., having had a clutch and other bits and pieces replaced without quibble. That was the main reason for looking at main dealers, but perhaps I have been barking up the wrong tree!
