Hi there, It is about time for us to switch our 85 Civic to something bigger (we have 2 kids). We were considering the 93 - 94 Volvo 940 but My workmate who drives a 93 Saab CD himself highly recommends a Saab. And so we went off to see a 94 CDE with leather seat and sun-roof yesterday. The car has about 35K miles on it and seems to be in good shape. I was almost sold but my wife warns me of the horror stories about Saab in the Consumer Report. She favors a Camry. My Saab driving workmate said his 93 was durable and that a good Saab can last practically foreever. Our questions now are: (1) How much should I believe CR's reliability rating on Saab (2) Is this particular 94 CDE reliable, any owners' feedback please (3) Which are the signs of a properly maintained Saab Please help and thanks in advance.
