Johannes, I agree with the majorty of your sentiments - I think the general impression I had from my dealer is that wouldn turn anything away, but that they might make matters a little difficult. They were quite happy to service it, but were warning me most about the Trade's general dim view of imported cars - hence the poor resale. The dealer themselves have twice been voted Saab Dealer of the Year in the UK, and apart from this reticence to deal with an import, I cannot fault their service. I think the most important issue is the one that both of us have commented on - if you plan to keep the car for a long period, then go for it, but as a short term user, the advantages perhaps are outweighed by the disadvantages.
