The 1986 Saab 9000 for buyers
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 1986 Saab 9000 for sale by us right now. Thinking about the 1986 Saab 9000? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
A buyer's checks
There are 2 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
The numbers in plain words
The 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Its combined rating is 11.2 L/100 km, which means roughly 34 litres for 300 km. That works out to about $17.36 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$3,200 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
A good match for
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
The 9000 in everyday use
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. In plain terms, its 680 litres of luggage space hold bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Drive it on your own roads
If the 9000 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Choosing the right one
Within the 1986 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
What it costs to run
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $17.36 in fuel. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$3,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
