I had a 2002 Saab 9-5 Sedan automatic transmission blow out on the day I bought it. ODO said about 300k km (190k miles give or take). The dealer replaced the car with a younger 9-5 Wagon with lower mileage so I'm kinda glad it did.

That 2002 model is supposed to be a lemon transmission-wise though (even so, 300k seems decent as far as lifespans go).
