Hi! Just bought a 900 turbo -89 (340 000 km. today). I had to repare quite much in the beginning. Had to renovate the gear box, replace the radiator for example. Expensive. But look out for worn out gear box, it sounds like a turbinelike sound from under the floor. Whistling turbo is also bad, needs to be replaced. Bad knockinglike sounds from the front wheels when turning indicates worn out propulsion system (or whatever it is called...). Also expensive. Otherwise: check the doors for rust. It is not unusual on these models. /Erik
