The 1982 Saab 900 for buyers
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 1982 Saab 900 for sale by us right now. We do not lease cars. A monthly rental has no long contract: each booking runs up to 365 days. Thinking about the 1982 Saab 900? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
What to check on the 900
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. 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. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
Reading the spec sheet
Fuel use for this model year: Rating on request; heavier trucks and vans are often outside the EPA ratings.
Good uses for the 900
It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
Practical details
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk.
Drive it on your own roads
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
Year and trim
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. Within the 1982 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Money matters
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. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.
Still deciding?
Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
