1998 900 SET 100k

My 1998 900 SET turned 100k this month. Still very happy with the car. It still looks very new and presentable when cleaned up. No regrets owning the car. If I had a chance to go back to 1998 and select a car, I would pay the same amount and select this car. The car is well maitained. Oil changes every 3k. May have streched it to 4k once. Did all the regular maintenance with the Saab service center.
Questions...
What do I expect going forward? What should I reasonably expect?
Here are my concerns...
1. Repairs. If repairs per year rise beyond a certain threshold, it will be time for me to buy a new car. I do no know what the threshold is but it will be something like half the amount that I would pay if I were to own a new car. Say if my payments for a new car will be 500/month, the threshold might be 3000 a year.
2. Do not want to be stuck. I want to go to my car on a daily basis and when I turn on the engine, expect it to run. Not much problems so far.
Can anyone give me a roadmap for the next 50k? or more?
Also, I recently had my headlight lens changed. I need stonguard but cannot find a website that sells a 1998 Saab 900 pre-cut headlight stonguards. Need help here if you know a site.
Thanks.
