yes yes lots Car inna Saab.. but the Safety isn't. Posted by Andrew [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: Seduced by the quantity not quality (long)..., zeke, Mon, 19 Jul 2004 18:02:58 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
.. Recent production Cars from Civics to Datsuns to VW's are a Whole 'nother league "safety Wise" than the Venerable 9000.
Please don't go trotting out that old wives Tale :-)
Recency of Design IS of paramount importance.. 9000's wrre designed in 82 to 84.. That's 20 years ago! by my Calculator.. Computerised Structural Design has travelled a Looong way since.. even the most Pedestrian of Current Cars simply outclasses the Saab Safety performance.
Sadly even Recent 9-5's don't equal a lowly Jetta inna Crash test.. true.. read for yourself.
Granted Saabs do encourage a Love Hate relationship with their owners.. But let's not be mindless Sycophants about it either :-)
The Emporer tends toward No Clothes embarassingly often.
