1991 SAAB 900 900s Convertible review from UK and Ireland
"Would not part with it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Head gasket blew two weeks after purchase.
Rear section of exhaust fell off after 4 weeks.
Rear window leaked from purchase - dealer made a complete rickets of the repair.
New steering rack at 105000 miles.
Extensive rusting at the bottom of both doors. (Anybody know of any repair kits for the bottom half of doors? I have been told they exist)
Eats brakes and wheel bearings.
General comments?
Harsh suspension and very average performance.
Forgive it all its faults on a fine day with the hood down!
