This being The Scirocco List, I suspect the overwhelming opinion is that you
should find a nice Scirocco. (I can help with that - ask me ;)

Bear in mind that the Saab motor faces backwards and the timing belt is
right against the firewall -- makes changing it a PITA. Also, they have
historically had weak trannies, test drive to see whether it pops out of
(any) gear when you accelerate then let off quickly.

Otherwise they are quite durable and watching your friend who just borrowed
it figure out where to stick the key is always good for 15 minutes of fun.

> Hello,
> For those who remember I was going to buy a really nice Scirocco for
roughly 6.5K CDN. The price is now 7K. I am also thinking about a 1986 SAAB
900s 16V. Any input or does anyone know anything about SAABs? Should I stick
with the 16V Scirocco?
