Partly because of this and partly because Saabs do not retain a high resale value, I buy previously owned Saabs at least 10 years old. Besides, its the only way to buy a Classic 900 now :-) P.S. I learned the hard way as well about shopping carts rolling downhill. The solution is to park on the high side of the parking lot. However, I have seen the plastic carts blown uphill in a high wind.
