As the Donkey states .............they are much cheapness for a reason.
Mechanical bits are readily available because they are mostly Vauxhall
The Company that was formed from the ashes of the UK importers of SAAB are allegedly struggling to get body panels and minor shunts are resulting in cars being written off.
In Summary, I love Saabs and the world would be a bleaker place without them.
If you can puchase at much cheapness (and your prices dont reflect that) and insure it likewise .......go ahead on the basis that you will not be able to get body repairs due to lack of parts

I suppose if it's a cheaper 2-3k car then getting second hand panels might be acceptable, a bit like trying to find S1 clams at times.

For shed/posh shed money they seem pretty unbeatable value, particularly as they are usually high spec.
