1994 SAAB 900 review from North America
"The best all round Saab I have driven considering performance, comfort, reliability and value"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Battery failed 3 times. Finally replaced by a non GM battery and no further problems.
General comments?
The car has served us well. We drive a lot in rural winter conditions. We have had no problems using snow tires.
It is a well balanced design which is fun to drive yet very practical. My only complaint, other than the lousy standard battery, is that I find the seats to be lacking in low back support.
