Description of 1985 Saab 900 900 turbo

I've got to sell my 1985 Saab 900 Turbo that I've had for 3 years
ONLY because I inherited my grandfather's BMW and can't take care of two cars, therwise I would keep this car til I die:
Its got about 280xxx miles
Runs great for its age & is really FAST. Really great on the highway
Beautiful cosmetically, o dents, cratches, tc. Never been in even a slight accident
All black paint, ims, ouvers
2 door, atchback with a large trunk, 3 door)
Back window has louvers.
Radio, unroof, eat warmers, ower windows and locks
automatic 3 speed transmission (Saabs only have 3)
more GOOD things:
-UPDATE as of 2/24/16 new water pump, oolant reservoir, lternator belts, ust paid $600 for repairs
-New spark plugs, ires, uel lines, arious hoses 11/2014
-2 new tires 11/15
-new brakes 9/14
-new turbo 11/14
-new battery 11/15
-new starter 12/15
-new exhaust system 7/14- passes smog!
-all lights, ower windows, eat, eat heaters, un roof work
-frequent tune ups & oil changes
-car has only lived in Washington & Oregon until recently, bought it in Portland and moved it to California, ever been in snow, alt, tc.
-leather seats- back seats in pristine condition
Not so good:
-some oil leaks, y mechanic doesn't know the cause, oesn't pose a mechanical problem- you will need to top off oil every couple of weeks if driven daily
-No power steering currently (reservoir has a hole and I didn't care to fix it, ut you can get a new one)
-front seats (leather) pretty torn up- get some black seat covers ;)
-hood has some rust spots where paint has come off. Please view photos carefully
The car needs revving for a minute for cold starts, hich is a common issue for 85-86 900s
Great for long trips (just took a 5 hour trip both ways, o problem)
Great for daily driving
Most people ask me if it is hard finding parts for my 80's Saabs (I've had 2) and I have never had a problem. There have been times where my mechanics had to make things work, ut I got a new turbo and all the other parts I've recently installed easily.
This car is amazing, nd drives great. I love this car very dearly. Take care of it!
