1988 Saab 900 2.0L Petrol · F115 PYE

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistently clean MOT history over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 7 April 2026 at 147,077 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a trend of perfect passes back to 2022. This suggests a stable maintenance regime where the owner is proactively addressing potential mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 38-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,870 miles per year. Between February 2022 and April 2026, the car covered only 2,480 miles, indicating it is used very sparingly or kept in storage for long periods. While this low mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between use can sometimes lead to issues related to component age rather than distance, such as perished rubber seals, seized calipers, or fluid degradation which do not always manifest during a standard MOT test. Despite the clean digital history, a buyer must perform a physical inspection focusing on structural integrity and suspension components. The Saab 900 of this era is prone to corrosion in the rear sills, wheel arches, and strut mounting points, which may remain hidden if surface surface rust. Given the low usage, check the brake lines for cracks and the tyres for flat spotting, as these parts age regardless of mileage. Additionally, inspect the rubber bushings for dry cracking to ensure the low mileage has not caused the materials to become brittle over time.
