Saabs are very durable and you will find many posters here who enjoy running Saabs that are over 10 years old. If a car has been parked outside in the damp UK for over 10 years, some occasional oxidation of fuse contacts is perhaps not surprising, but it is not a big problem at all. The 2.2 tid comes in 115bhp and 125 bhp. This diesel was not the most refined in the industry, hence it's being replaced by a superior 1.9 tid. But see it it matters.
