1989 SAAB 9000 Turbo 16 review from Denmark
"Good car, if it has been well maintained"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
ABS warning light flicker intermittently.
Heater core leaking. Suspect it was like that when I got the car.
Sunroof - tilt function doesn't always work.
Cracking noise from trip computer.
Heated rear window string fail.
General comments?
Very good and comfortable leather seats.
Excellent driving position and dashboard.
Everything is well designed with a great attention to details.
Hatchback: open it after it has rained and water will pour into the luggage-compartment.
Very spacey cabin.
Very good performance from 2.0 turbo engine - excellent for long distance travel.
Pay attention to rust in the doors!
