My trusty old BART car is going to need replacing.

(For non-SF Bay Area people, BART car means the beater you leave at the subway station, or the airport long-term parking etc)

I'm tempted by a 80s Saab 900. I think they look interesting, plenty of room, and convertible option.

Now, every mechanic I've asked has warned me away from Saabs. Not so promising.

But perhaps they are okay cars to own if you're going to DIY.

Any Saab experience here? Opinions?
