Is a 15 year old Saab a good buy?

I have just seen a 2004 Saab 9.3 Aero 2.0-litre for sale (68,000 miles only) for £1995. Would you say this was a bargain?

There are two ways of looking at this. On the one hand, it's a 15-year-old car from a manufacturer that no longer exists and, in the real-world, is worth little more than scrap. On the other hand, it's not done many miles and, if it's in excellent condition, could almost be considered a future classic. It might be worth £2000 then but, in truth, it sounds like fairly strong money to me.
