120K (well maintained) miles on a SAAB is not much, however if they are 120K abused/neglected miles, there is could some stuff wrong with it.
Take it for a good ride, test it out, hows the steering? Is the ride smooth, or rough? Does it shift good withought any problems or noises?
Also, you know a lot of people never give there car tune-ups or oil changes, I think doing these often really increases the life of your car, I know people who have owned the same car for years and never once gave it an oil/filter change. Be sure to ask about it, has everything been kept up on this car? How does it look in &out?
Lots of stuff to take into consideration. I bought an '85 SPG that had 253K on it, it looked nearly mint, had new seats, headliner, dash, carpets, all kinds of new stuff, the engine compartment was spotless, it had tune-ups and oil changes all its life on time, and drove/shifted/handled great. If there taken care of, they will last a very long time, it now has 284K and is still running good, and it still pretty fast.
Good luck on your Purchase! If you decide to buy it, I know you'll love it, SPGs are great fun!
