Saab 900 Hatchback 1993-
  • Economy

    Value

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Lost £1,500 in 10 months since purchasing, but could be used car market, rather than car to blame.

    Costs

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Insurance biggest killer, but spares etc. seem pretty cheap. Tyres expensive, though.

  • On the road

    Driving

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very comfy, good handling and easy to park. Great on motorways.

    Performance

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Good acceleration, smooth steering and good road holding.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Have only had to replace one tyre and the battery in 12 months. Seems a good bet if well serviced.

    Top notch - the car looks a million dollars and gets a lot of admiring glances.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Can't fault the 900SE - comfy leather seats, good driving position, air conditioning and a cracking stereo.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Can't get central locking in passenger door to work - is this a common fault? Otherwise, seems ok.

    Service

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Service good, but dealers are few and far between in Scotland.
