Your starter for ten!!!

Ah, wrong Saab for economy. Try a 9000LPT model. I just bought a 9000S, like you say, lovely car, but not what you'd call economical - and there's that computer reminding you all the time!

I am impressed with the Saabscene forum support though and the parts availability is better than Merc... and hell, a car like that with 12 months test, 6 months tax, FSH and four new tyres for under £650? I'm happy! ;-))

I know. it was a head following heart decission.

I loved the shape of the 900, and a turbo turned out to be negligable difference on the insurance than an injection for a normal standard daily driver policy.

Have driven a CD9000 LPT as a courtesy when the 900 was in having a few jobs done at higher oak.

Not a bad car. managed about 32 to the gallon instead of the 28 I've been getting, very comfy and loads of room too. and it could happily run premium instead of the super I was using in the 900.

But I have been using premium in the 900 with know ill effects just latley, so will stay with that for a while.
