MODERN Saabs- any good??

[The Reverend Bluejeans]

2004 9-5 estate for £400, short/no MOT and needs stuff like rear axle bushes.

Admittedly not at that price.

Now that's a Saab! They were really well regarded cars in the eighties, probably up there with BMW. How the fuck did GM balls it up so badly? Oh wait..........

The company I was working for in the mid 80s had them for most of the board members. I only drove one once, a 16v Turbo, but shit myself when I inadvertantly hurtled across a roundabout in Stevenage just after leaving our offices.

SAAB fucked themselves over, GM just helped them on their way.

I think that he lives in the Lakes so isn't even guaranteed that if my memories of holidays there are accurate.

I do live in the Lakes but as long as its dry the roof will be down, my missus is the same in her cab, any chance to go topless she does,.it doesn't rain all the time here, just most of it
