Bought car in 2004 for 1900 euros. Bargain, drove to the UK a few times, no problems, great on motorways, ride harsh on Irish back roads, not too economical at 32mpg.

Great sized boot, comfy seats, fantastic heater, good sounding stereo and very well insulated interior.

Overall a very solid car, with built to last internals and very substantial bodywork.

It feels like it could easily do 200,000 miles no problem.

Faults:

This is a great driving fun car. The problem is the heater. There is barely enough to defrost the windshield. All the other Saabs I have owned would run you out. My understanding this is a cross-over year, part 93 and part 94. Anyone have any suggestions?

Faults:

Not a lot really at time of purchase from SAAB city the gear selector chip was faulty, but as it was only just bought they replaced it without fuss. Servicing at the main dealers is a little pricey, but the service from the techs was good even if the sales personnel could be a bit smarmy.

The styling and luxury of the SE was and is a joy, it reminds me of a modern day old jag, squat with seats like an old leather club chair. When I drove it up to the Lakes I was astonished at just how comfortable and safe it felt even at speeds that may have raised several eyebrows of the local constabulary. It also seemed to run more economically if driven hard on motorways, it's on board computer confirming the fact that the faster you went the more miles per gallon you did. Loved every minute.

Faults:

Nothing at all!!

Great Machine. It is a dream to drive it. It is my baby.I'm only sixteen, but I know my cars. This was the best convertible made. The top is pretty much down all the time except for when it rains of course. For all you Saab 900 haters out there.. YOU ALL JUST Don't KNOW GOOD CARS WHEN YOU SEE THEM. I plan to purchase another one of the same year. Hoping for a turbo. I will always cherish this vehicle. American cars suck compared to the beauty of this car. Turns heads every where! If you get the chance... buy one!

Faults:

Grey leather seats showed slight signs of wear, but nothing too drastic. Fairly easy to remedy using a top grade hide conditioner.

General Comments:

Extremely well built car that delivers an exceptionally powerful performance for its engine size. The V6 engine did not show any of the problems indicated by some drivers.

Faults:

Clutch cable broke at 160,000.

Shifter broke at 160,000.

Idler pulleys broke at 165,000.

Terrible to get aligned!

General Comments:

Would not buy this model again. The 94 was the first year of the SAAB GM transition. NG (next generation, due to GM transition and redesign) 900 problems did not get worked out until 1997. Simply not as solid as previous Saab 900's. If considering 900 expect clutch cable to break and if you have an auto trans expect lots of upkeep. If you have your heart set on 900 look @ pre 94 900's. These are much more solid and more well built than the 94-97 NG 900.
