last night i was coming down my friend's(also a saab owner) snow covered black top driveway... i've been down it many times, and every time i make sure to be extremely careful in the snow, as i was coming down it, about half way down, the antilock brakes kicked in and i began to slide down..i let my foot off the brakes and attempted to turn out of it but to no avail, applying the brakes again only made things worse, i proceeded to hit a huge rock, 2 alberta spruce trees and a flag pole...it was all over in 8 seconds... my friend and i pushed the car out of the trees to inspect the damage, from the feel and sound of the accident, i was fearing the worst...i found my bumper to be scratched to hell, my left fog and blinker both were dangleing by the wires...what a shame, i can not believe i did this to my car...i'm estimating that there is about $900 in damage if i wanted it to be restored to new, $500 if i can live with scratches on the bumper which i think i may opt for, i've had the car 6 months...it is a sad day in the heart of one saab owner
