In fact it is GM that has been associated with Saab; learning turbo technology and using a 175 bhp Saab turbo engine as an option for GM Vauxhall Vectra. Modern saabs use GM platforms, but they have been heavily modified by the clever Swedish engineers. Saab 9000 (to 1998) and early Saab 900 have no connection with GM. For me, BMW are too common on the roads. They are not particularly fuel efficient (petrol), although they do have some fine diesels, probably the best. But then if you don't like diesels, you're stuck. And the BMW servicing indicator must be a nuisance if you do your own servicing? I always have an image of BMW drivers being very pushy: "get out of my way" sort of thing.
