The Turbo 16S (or, T16S) was the UK equivalent of the US SPG or European Aero, rated to 175 BHP. The 900 S was introduced somewhere around 1990 and was a 145 BHP LPT 16V. Oddly enough, in the UK, that model was the first time "Aero" appeared on the registration document. The Turbo S is a late 8V model, also called the T8 Special. Both the UK and Sweden got this car, although their exterior detailing was different ... see my Special Editions website to be enlightened :) http://www.pjgh.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/saab/specials/pages/1981_900ts.html http://www.pjgh.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/saab/specials/pages/1989_t8s.html http://www.pjgh.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/saab/specials/pages/1989_t8_aero.html Paul (posting via Google Groups)
