Towing: how we help
Searching for towing for the 1987 Saab 900? CarmaCars does not do this work itself; we arrange it with a trusted shop. Tell us where the car is, where it should go, and whether the keys are with it.
About your 900
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the 900. The shop sets its own price and time after it sees the car. The 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo does the work, through a 5-speed manual.
What to send us
Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. Send the car's details and what it needs; we take it from there. The repair is between you and the shop; the rental is with us.
Driving while yours is at the shop
Keep moving with a rental while the shop has your car, by the day at our usual rates. We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
Good habits for your car
Keep an emergency kit in the trunk in winter. Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
Before the shop starts
If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. Ask whether the shop needs your keys, the wheel lock key or the spare.
Let us know

Request towing
Tell us when suits you. A person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one; the shop sets its own price and time.
