We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 1982 Saab 900 for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans.

Recalls and complaints

In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

What the figures tell you

The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.

Best uses

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.

What the 900 is like

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with.

Drive it on your own roads

A week with the 900 answers more than any brochure. Rent the 900 first, and buy only if it fits your life. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.

Which one to look for

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.

Money matters

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Talk to a person

A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 1982 Saab 900 from us first.
