The Saab 900: before you buy

CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the Saab 900; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. This page sets out the Saab 900 for buyers, in plain words.

Before you sign for 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. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.

Under the hood

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Best uses

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

Living with the 900

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk.

Drive it on your own roads

Rent first, buy later: a week with the 900 answers the big questions. A week with the 900 answers more than any brochure. Try the 900 on your commute, then decide.

Choosing the right one

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. The years table on this page shows where the 900 changed.

Running costs

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Over to you

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 Saab 900 from us first.

Buying the Saab 900

Does CarmaCars sell the Saab 900?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a Saab 900 before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
