1990 SAAB 9000 CDS review from UK and Ireland
"With these cars at 1000ukp and less, you can't go wrong!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch slave failed at 250,000.
Gear selector bushing failed at 275,000 and was repaired with a custom-fabricated steel fitting.
Central locking sticky.
Steering rack developing slight play.
General comments?
At 130mph top speed and a 9.2 0-60, this is a quick car for the money.
Fuel economy is a measured 35mpg combined and 43mpg gentle highway (65mph).
