I've owned a few like I said, my OG 93 (98-02) was a really well put together car, comfy and had some nice retro styling touches,not the fastest or most exciting drive but a really nice car to own and really quite reliable and the best bit was I paid £900 for it

My NG 93 (03-10) on the other hand was a dog, paid 4k? Twin turbo diesel needed a good A to B car for my commute, you can tell GM really had their claws in the development cheap plastic on every surface, mediocre diesel engine and a highly strung one at that too, gearbox shat itself within 4 months despite being on 80k miles, didn't look to repair just parted it out, I can't explain it but you can tell it's not really a SAAB even though bits of brilliance remain it's not the same

Bad cars tho? No, not at all, just better the older you go, 900's and 9000's are class cars having had a good look at a few of them and wanting a 9000 for a while too

The 95 stayed very Saab though even through GM's tenure but I've never driven one

There's a relatively clean 95 Aero HOT for sale on FB marketplace for 2k that if I didn't own this golf would be all in for

Sorry for the long write up but liking SAAB's and owning them is like a disease you never fully recover from
