1994 SAAB 900 SE review from UK and Ireland
"An unusual Iconic Beast"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
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.
General comments?
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.
