I did my drivers license test in a '74 Saab. The only thing I vaguely remember about the '85 era vehicles is that I think they have the extra weird gear driven H2O pumps which are a bitch to R&R, and leak into the sump when they fail. I like Saabs...sort of.

I know we've got some Saab enthusiasts on this list so. Theres an '85 Saab 900 on Craigslist near me. 114k miles, 5spd. Supposedly needs a fuel pump relay to run. They want $200, the pictures make it look like a very nice car which considering its a New England car means its a rust bucket but I digress. Back in highschool I had a friend who had a '79 Saab which she let me drive once. I remember it being a very nice driving car. We currently need a third car for a backup and since I'm having no luck finding another Benz I'm opening the field a bit. I've been told that old Saabs are a nightmare to keep up. Any opinions?
