Vehicle Detail

I've got to sell my 1985 Saab 900 Turbo that I've had for 3 yearsONLY because I inherited my grandfather's BMW and can't take care of two cars, otherwise I would keep this car til I die:Its got about 280xxx miles Runs great for its age & is really FAST. Really great on the highwayBeautiful cosmetically, no dents, scratches, etc. Never been in even a slight accidentAll black paint, rims, louvers 2 door, hatchback with a large trunk, (3 door) Back window has louvers.Radio, sunroof, seat warmers, power windows and locks automatic 3 speed transmission (Saabs only have 3)more GOOD things:-UPDATE as of 2/24/16 new water pump, coolant reservoir, alternator belts, just paid $600 for repairs -New spark plugs, wires, fuel lines, various hoses 11/2014-2 new tires 11/15-new brakes 9/14-new turbo 11/14-new battery 11/15-new starter 12/15-new exhaust system 7/14- passes smog!-all lights, power windows, heat, seat heaters, sun roof work-frequent tune ups & oil changes-car has only lived in Washington & Oregon until recently, I bought it in Portland and moved it to California, never been in snow, salt, etc.-leather seats- back seats in pristine conditionNot so good:-some oil leaks, my mechanic doesn't know the cause, doesn't pose a mechanical problem- you will need to top off oil every couple of weeks if driven daily-No power steering currently (reservoir has a hole and I didn't care to fix it, but you can get a new one)-front seats (leather) pretty torn up- get some black seat covers ;)-hood has some rust spots where paint has come off. Please view photos carefullyThe car needs revving for a minute for cold starts, which is a common issue for 85-86 900sGreat for long trips (just took a 5 hour trip both ways, no problem)Great for daily drivingMost people ask me if it is hard finding parts for my 80's Saabs (I've had 2) and I have never had a problem. There have been times where my mechanics had to make things work, but I got a new turbo and all the other parts I've recently installed easily.This car is amazing, and drives great. I love this car very dearly. Take care of it!
