Along with Jim's comments ...
What kind of transmission? Auto or 5-speed.
Auto transmissions for the C900 are kinda marginal. Do a search on "Automatic" (no quotes - see the Search the Classic 900 bulletin board dialog box above) and you can read what can go wrong with them.
If it's a 5-speed, listen for a whining sound in 4th and 5th gear. That means the pinion bearing is very worn and, if it's not too late, the transmission will need some serious care.
Are you a DIYer and are you willing to learn more about DIY projects? You can save money on SAAB repairs and maintenance if you can DIY.
Here's a link to the TSN FAQ oin buying used SAABs. The C900 information starts about halfway down.
