Not a problem to me - I quite happily gurgle away on UK SAABs, 900 Aero, SAAB Central and a number of other national/own language forums :) Hey, talking of the 'Million Mile SAAB' (er-hum) ... I read that the gearbox was re-built after 200,000 miles, but was then good for the remainder of the million miles. What do we do in the first 200,000 (or 100,000 if you're me!) that we do not do thereafter? For me, it was "upping" the boost to Type M specifications and dragging Evos, Scoobies and bikes off the line ... Bad idea :o Or, are we saying that the gearbox is inherently poor and that a good re-build will last for the remainder of the car's life? Inquiring minds need to know ...
