Murray, I have an 87 9000S 5 spd with 145,890 miles this past December for $3400. I have had to replace some of the same things on mine, but I have found a parts source that has helped keep the cost down. I use Impex Distributors, www.zstarr.com, 1-800-736-3550. I stumbled across them in this newsgroup, and I am glad I did. My replacement A/C compressor was $286.15, the rear replacement muffler, a Starla, was less than $70 delivered, a new crankshaft pulley and seal was less than $143 and I just replaced my center muffler, a Starla, for $79.79 plus shipping. It just takes a little work and luck and repairs don't have to be so expensive. My 9000 is my third Saab. I had an 83 900T for over 13 years and an 87 900S for over two years. Since yours is an automatic, the best thing you can do is to make sure you changed the transmission fluid and filter once every 24,000 miles or two years, whichever comes first. That is out of my Haynes Manual. Ken Washington 87 9000S Upper Marlboro, MD
