Looking to buy a Saab Cabrio
Discussion
My back is absolutely buggered, and consequently I'm not able to enjoy my current convertibles, so I was thinking about a Saab convertible.
I live in Belgium and there are more diesels than petrol models on the market. My preference would be for the 2.0 petrol with an automatic box - I just want it for wafting about - but I've been offered a low mileage 2006 model which is a 1.9 diesel.
Just wondering if anyone can advise what to look out for - are the engines chain or belt? Any known weaknesses? Budget is reasonably flexible, and while it won't be a daily driver, I want it to be reliable.
What about the cabrio roof? I would like to keep the car outside at the house during the spring-autumn. I have car storage for the winter but that's nearly an hour away from the house.
Grateful for any comments/observations.advice.
