Was leaving my wife's Saab up to AC this morning to get it serviced, great to drive it in this weather, heated leather seats and a slush box, Like driving a couch!

Is it a 9-3 or a 9-5 or an old school SAAB?? I've always had a hankering after an old 900 Turbo, they are literally the coolest car on the road!

as I said,,,   driven by older gents more mature in there years.....boring cars yawn yawn.



You might want to have a spin in our S60, has the old 850T5R engine in there, real jeckel and hyde, pops and bangs on the overrun, lovely 5cyl scowl at high revs, loves to murder pups in scoobys, type R's and the other old mans car - the E39......(M5 excepted) and is supremely comfortable on long journeys. Having said that, is completely at sea on any corner and the steering is definitely by rudder !
That's why I have a BMW as well

Hi all,

havent posted in a few months on the road a lot with work and still no net at home, anyway time has come to change the 318is for a diesel. Took this out for a spin today a very smooth ride, the car is in mint condition full bmwsh and was very impressed, except for one thing, i was not happy when changing gears there was a clunk noise as you let out the clutch, let the window down and the noise was very noticeable other than this the engine purred away. Any comments on what this could be. I do very much like this car but if it is a gearbox job in 7 months just after the warrantee runs out Oouch

well have you decided whether you are getting the car, seeing as we have gone on to saab and volvo's
