This car was a "Belgian" Saab, and if I had taken it to a mechanic for a pre-purchase inspection, I would've been advised not to purchase it. I had a major repair every three or four months, until I finally sold it.
It was a good handling car, with a firm and sure ride.
Saabs are not made in Belgium, they are made in Sweden.
Now you know what the EMS stands for - Every Motoring Sickness!
To the above comment: Some saabs were actually made in Belgium.
My 77 EMS was made in Belgium. That is what the plaque on the door panel said.
