Saabs have an amazing ability to keep going with a lot of things wrong. If you take an "Anarchist Cookbook" approach to maintanance it might just work for you. That's means fixing only what you absolutely have to fix when you have to fix it and doing it as cheap as you can with used parts, duct tape and bailing wire. Who says tire have to match, get them at a junk yard. Oil leaks? It can leak a lot of oil for a lot of years and as long as you check the level and keep it full you'll be fine. Radiator leaks? Fill it with "Sop Leak." You don't want to do compromise safety, but anything else is fair game. The real key is finding a mechanic who won't rob you blind.
