I'm not exactly an expert, but I do keep up with what's out there to some degree. All of the above are great cars, I've actually owned (in addition to both the Saabs under consideration) three Volvo 240's of various years. The Volvos are probably unequaled in reliability but are not exactly overflowing with personality. I'm not sure where you live, but you should probably consider that the Saabs are the only members of the group you mention to have front wheel drive. (depending on the year of the Mercedes in question) Having driven rear-drive Volvos in all kinds of weather I feel qualified to suggest that unless you live someplace where it NEVER snows you should lean toward a Saab.
