Saab 9-5

Owner verdict (Driver Power 2010):

With more ups and downs than a rollercoaster, the 9-5’s scoresheet reveals ownership can be a test of patience.

Let’s start with the good news. You claim that only three cars are more comfortable, while Saab’s turbocharged engines clearly please owners in the performance stakes.

On the downside, running costs are deemed unacceptably high, while the handling is a letdown.

Overall owner rating :
85.78% (37th overall in Driver Power 2010)
Owners who would buy a 9-5 again:
84%
Owners who would buy another Saab again:
95%
