Good Evening all!
So, I have a great feeling about a 900, its had 3 owners first of which was a priest believe it or not and has had SAAB center services yearly for the first 17 years. The second owner had it two years ( sold due to high taxes in greece) and the third guy has had it since 2008 on the Island of Crete he put Bilstein shocks on and seems to have a great knowledge of the car but once again selling due to taxes.
It has clearly been very well looked after with pristine original leather and body work.The electronics are functioning perfectly.
The only minor issue is that the A/C pump has a small leak but I am under the impression that if i dont need AC I can leave it as is?
Its a 8 hour ferry trip from me hence why im digging so deep into its history before taking the plunge to see it in person
The bottom line is I love it and want it but need some advice on what to look for when test driving etc? What I really want to determine is the longevity of the car once i buy it
- its lived its life in the Mediterranean so rust isn't an issue
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
