If you've ever looked at the coolant of a car that hasn't had it changed in a really long time, it's basically brown due to rust. An old all iron American engine doesn't seem as bothered by this, but on a Saab the head gasket tends to go if the coolant isn't changed. You can also corrode the aluminum head, and the radiator will get plugged sooner. Coolant should really be changed at least some what regularly.
