Saab 900 turbo on the Stelvio Pass
Loading...
Uploaded by waxle on Aug 29, 2010
On August 15th 2010, we drove a MY84 Saab 900 T16 and a MY88 Saab 900 Aero up and over the Stelvio Pass; also formally known as the 'best driving road in the world' (Jeremy Clarkson - Top Gear). Besides the fact that we had to cope with rain, hail and the occasional campervan, it was a delight and the best day ever spent in an old Saab.

@metonAlternate There was to many cosmetic and small mechanical flaws with my 900. I just couldn't justify the cost of making it perfect so I sold it to a mechanic who had the skill and resources to restore it to it's former beauty. Fortunately the one thing it didn't have was rust. Yes, the 99 was probably the best Saab ever built. Robust and simple much like it's Volvo 240 competitor.

@satorres82 Mm'h. Althoúgh I have yet to do a complete tare down and rebuild of a H-block turbo, I suppose when you're used to maintaining engines yourself it doesn't sound like such a big deal. (I have changed gasket seal.) But indeed, the sun roof is a classic flaw in old Saabs. Fortunately in Finland there wasn't much market for them, it is usually the beginning of the end for the body. The EMS though, phew. It's the only N/A Saab I drool after. There are only a handful of 99s driving in .fi

@metonAlternate The SPG I bought with a salvage title and only 86k on the odo. Someone backed into it again while I owned it and it had a leaking head gasket. Thing is with 900's is little things start to fall apart on them. Like the sunroof failing and then leaking. So no, I didn't get a very good price even though it only had about 102k miles. The '79 I sold for exactly what I paid for it four years earlier. I think the 99 EMS was a much better car then the 900.

@satorres82 Considering both are historically significant collectables. And were that already before Saab went bust, I hope you at least got a decent price.

What's this braking in corners malarky? Seriously, I've taken steeper turns on snow and ice and it wasn't even an Aero. The 900 is a FF car that over steers, especially when you push it. The whole point is to take corners with power, pref on boost.
