1995 SAAB 900 s convertable review from UK and Ireland
"Nice looks and build quality, but performance lets it down"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The part of the exhaust that was attached to the manifold went.
The middle brake light went.
The rear brake pads and disks had to be replaced as they had seized up and stopped working.
General comments?
This car is a nice looking quality car.
But the performance really lets it down, as it is awful! I even had to buy a set of new low profile wheels to make the handling less dangerous.
The car gathers attention when the rook is off, as it has beautiful grey leather interior.
The roof folds down very neat and tidily into the boot, and still leaves quite a lot of space in the boot.
The car is very sluggish off the line, but great at high speeds on the motorway. I have to keep constantly changing down gear to make the car move out of corners. At low revs this car is atrocious.
