Any time you want a car, take it for a test drive. Show sincere interest. They may be looking for a turkey, but they're realists at bottom.
I wouldn't even offer whatever some book says. These are so old even good examples are going to junkyards with minor problems.
And definitely run the VIN numbers, that mileage is almost too low to believe even IF owned by a little old lady. They like to drive too. Saabs age amazingly well, and clean up nicely. A new headliner, maybe a new driver's seat. And there are tricks like brand new pedal covers, other new interior pieces.
How's the chrome on the door latch surrounds? The black inset with pic of a window on the power window switches (if it has them). Around here, most 900s just have white spots there, on all windows; it's all worn off. Most 9000s in junkyards, even on driver window switch, black spot with white window outline is still perfect.
