I put many miles on my '90 900T and the tranny, turbo, engine all love to be driven and are all original. Clutch seal failed at 200k with ~40% left on original clutch plate....and within 5k miles had to replace radiator(along with T-stat, thermal switch), power steering pump, fuel pump.
These items can all be done very easily DIY to save major $$. That is why these are such great cars.
Next up are shocks/springs and bushings but the car now has 260k miles and doing great. Just burning through tires every year.
THese cars love miles and once you find the right one...Fix it up and drive it. Great second vehicle...especially if you can obsorb maint. costs with DIY and using this board for advice.
