Buyers guide for the Saab 900
Your Classic magazine - January 1994

Saab's evergreen 900 is tough, relaible and far cheaper to run than you might think.

Just GREAT !!!!!

On page 42, there is an interesting blurb:

Turbo and cabriolet models very popular but estate (left) was never imported into the UK

Next to the blurb there is a picture of a very handsome looking classic 900 wagon! But we all know it's never been produced. I guess they had no way to fact-check their article, in the Dark Ages before Google, but what a blunder for a car magazine to make! I wonder which welded-together 900 wagon that was. Maybe the one that is now red and lives in the Netherlands somewhere?

It certainly looks like it has yellow Dutch license plates. Around that time, all had a number/letter format of XX-XX-XX.

This thread shows a picture of a 900 wagon conversion made in the Netherlands: Saabforum.nl • Toon onderwerp - 900 Safari

Clearly not written by someone who knows much about 900s. He doesn't seem aware that there were two totally different fuel injection systems used -- mechanical and electronic. But obviously a fan so that's the main thing.

Cheap to run? Compared to what? The international space station?
