Lovely looking bike, screams nineties with purple paint instead of all purple anodised bits!
I would love one or even earlier e stay Saracen.
I've low mileage stx on a marin, it's slightly heavier but hard wearing and good looking.
I've got lx and xt and xtr bikes, and actually it's all very similar in use..!
8 speed xt is the pinnacle of smooth and nice finish, but I grew up stx level, I thrashed it.. it works and spares in nice nick are cheap.
Just like a lot of older cars you can have a lot of fun without being broke, just be being different.
Reckon you are in good company here, there's more riders than garage queen's I think still.
Enjoy the purple goodness .
