1985 SAAB 900 Turbo review from Australia and New Zealand
"A very good car,not a lemon."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oil leaks all over the place.
General comments?
A very reliable car, very comfortable and fast if you put your foot down... thirsty if you do... no joke here!!!
Very comfortable interior and so well made... a big truck hit me once and really no worries, the truck driver was very surprised as the car was damaged, but not as if it has been a korean car...
Before you buy one make sure.. I will say this again, make sure you got a good mechanic... not an "specialist" but one that you can trust, as the car is fairly complex... very advance for its time. My car used to leak oil from everywhere...didn't stop this dinosaur... a heavy and very safe dinosaur.
