The saloon is a better car, handling wise, and a tiny bit faster. Combi's are all 78-79 models....Basically the coupe is a proto 900, and has less unique 99 feel IMHO Actually first glance you'd be hard pressed to diffentiate an early '79-'80 900T from a 99T, same inca's, same classic red interior! I dare say these are the rarer car now (lived life short&fast!) and would be a nice find too...
