1993 SAAB 900 SE 16v review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New air conditioning switch on purchase. At first service warped rear discs replaced. The lambda probe also had to be removed, cleaned and refitted as the engine warning light kept on coming on. Other than that just a new clutch at 79,000 miles.
General comments?
Very fast even though not the full blown turbo, out accelerates most on the road, fantastic for fast country lanes and overtaking. Turbo lag a great rush once mastered! Exhaust note great, it growls (better than Impreza Turbo's). One of the best cars for carrying 200 bottles of Champagne at 120mph without having to look like an estate.
