Before pulling the trigger take it to another Saab mechanic and have it inspected for the obvious items, CV joints, Harmonic balancer, front main seal behind balancer, leaking headgasket, transmission linkage bushings, brakes, A/C O rings tend to leak and of course everyone and their mother tells you you need a compressor...... check the altenator bushings, most will try to sell you a new altenator when its just the bushing which is about 5 bucks for the part .......... everything else should be obvious to the trained eye.
A good indication you have found a good Saab mechanic is there are about 20 Saabs parked outside his shop for service.
At $1000.00 it sounds like a great deal, I normally buy all I can find at that price knowing that I'll spend another $500.00 to get it perfect and then sell it for $3000.00 so your right where you need to be on price.
Figure $200.00 bucks on the headliner with sun roof, any more and your not shopping well enough and another misc. $300.00 here and there. The milage.....No problem as the others said, it should go another 100K NO problem.
Good luck
