I bought this Saab from an independent Saab specialist two and a half years ago. Recently there was some knocking on manoevring and on examination I am told that the bulkhead is so badly split that it is beyond repair. The garage have said that the only possibility is to replace the bulkhead at a cost of £3,000. Apparently the Saab repair kit cannot be used, because the cracking has gone too far. The car has done 69,000 miles. Our previous car was a Saab 900 turbo which we reluctantly replaced as the repairs were becoming too costly (we are both in our mid-seventies). Is there any point in us approaching Saab on the basis of this being being a design fault, or is the car too old?
