What most often fails on a Saab 9-3 at its MOT
Across 32,358 Saab 9-3 MOT tests in 2025 (all versions together), these defects turned up most often.
- Coil spring: fractured or broken. On 6.1% of Saab 9-3 tests, 1.7 times the rate for cars of the same age.
- Position lamp: not working. On 3.3% of Saab 9-3 tests.
- Brake efficiency below the required level on the roller test. On 2.4% of Saab 9-3 tests.
The MOT checks safety and emissions items, not the engine, clutch or gearbox, so this is one measure of how each car holds up rather than a full reliability verdict. These figures describe the model, all its versions together, not this particular car.

What this car costs to run
Modelled over 7,100 miles a year (DfT National Travel Survey, England). Ranges, not quotes — every figure here is an estimate.
- Vehicle tax (VED)Registered 2006, so road tax depends on this car's official CO2 figure, which is not on the advert: £20 a year at 100 g/km or under, rising to £790 over 255 g/km. The CO2 figure is on the V5C: ask the dealer for it, or for the registration to check on GOV.UK. The rates by CO2 are in GOV.UK's vehicle tax band table
- Depends on CO2
- FuelThe listing does not give the engine size, so fuel is left out rather than guessed
- Not estimated
- Insurance (UK average)The UK average premium actually paid for comprehensive cover, £566 in Q2 2026 (ABI) — an average across every driver, postcode and car, not a quote for this one. Yours turns on your age, postcode and record and on the car’s insurance group. A 17–20-year-old new driver typically pays more than this average: see our guide to the cheapest cars to insure as a new driver, or the ABI figures
- £566
- ServicingAutoza's rough estimate for this make, not survey data. Routine servicing only — excludes repairs and tyres
- £200–£450
- MOT test£54.85 maximum in Great Britain — the DVSA cap, and many garages charge less — with the first test on the third anniversary of registration. DVSA: 27.51% of car and light-van MOTs in Great Britain failed their initial test in 2025/26, and repairs are extra
- up to £54.85
- Total of the figures aboveLeaves out fuel, which we could not estimate for this car, so the real yearly cost is higher
- £800–£1,900
Work out the vehicle tax with our car tax calculator (it opens with this car's year and fuel filled in), or put in your own mileage and prices with the running cost calculator. The CO2 figure is not on the advert. Once you have the registration, our free registration check reads the CO2 figure DVLA holds for it, where DVLA holds one.
