Buying a 1994 2.3: Engine trouble?

Hi
My current car is a '87 900 Turbo 8-valve, which has been a great daily driver but getting close to retirement age. I'm considering buying a NG900, but have heard various rumours of engine trouble and the like with the first two model years, 94-95.
I've now got two options: A 94 2.3 litre non-turbo, and a 1995 2.0 litre 900 S with no thrills, just a standard Saab. Both have about 120000 miles on their backs. I'm most keen on the 2.3, but is there any truth to the rumours?
I'd also be grateful if anyone could offer some input as to what to look out for on the first years of NG900. My knowledge of the classic 900 has become quite good with time, but now I'm with blank sheets.
Thanks in advance,
Jimmy S. - norwegian Saab owner - once a Saab, always Saab...
