1992 SAABS

I am considering purchasing a 1992 900s 4-door. I formerly had a 1990 900s hatchback and loved it (it was my first Saab), and would like to remain a Saaber (had to part with the former due to move). The asking price for the 1992 is right, but I heard this year had problems with the head gasket. The seller seems to have kept good service records and had replaced the head gasket replaced at 80K, though, by a reputable Saab shop in the area.
The car is at 110K now. Should I be concerned about future head gasket or cooling system problems? Any other things I might want to look out for? I think 1992 was also a year the engine was moved up to a 2.,1 and I do not know if that introduced any new kinks.
BTW, is there a recommended coolant for the 1992's based on their history?
Any input would be greatly appreciated. My plans for my next SAAB would be for both daily driving and extended trips, and I would like to make it last until 200K ore more. Thanks - JCJ
