Renting the 1998 Saab 900
The 1998 Saab 900 for a rental car: the facts first, then the booking. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price.
Reading the spec sheet
Power comes from the 2.0L 4-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
The combined figure, 10.7 L/100 km, means roughly 32 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $16.59, and a 300 km weekend about $49.77.
Space, size and seats
Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. With 680 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
When the 900 makes sense
It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
Our 900 cars
Similar cars are listed below if you need one now. Ask for this exact car in your request, and we tell you what we can offer. We have none on the site right now. Send a request for this exact car and we look for one for your dates. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
How it works
The process opens with a request from you, which costs nothing and binds you to nothing. Our reply is an offer that lists the rate, the kilometres included and any delivery fee. Say yes to the offer and pay; that is when the booking is made.
The calendar on each car's page helps you pick dates that work. Book one day, one week, or up to 365 days at once. We need at least 2 hours of notice before a pickup.
Driver requirements
The minimum age is 18, and the licence must be an Ontario G2 or G, valid for the whole trip. Under 26? You can rent, with a daily young driver fee shown on the car's page. A credit card in your name is needed, except on cars marked "no credit card needed", which take debit.
The CarmaCars Protection Plan is priced in your offer by car and driver age, as one of three options for damage to the car. Expect a deposit before every rental; its amount is set by the car. Each renter is checked the same way, before the booking is confirmed.
