Last Friday after visiting a friend in London I came out to my SAAB 9-5 (2005 MY 2.2 diesel auto estate) and pressed the remote, nothing happened. I tried everything to open the car without any joy, the key just turned in the lock and there is no external lock on the tailgate. I called out the...

Hi, I have naughty thoughts on buying a 9-3 Turbo X. I didn't know the car even existed until yesterday. Could you please tell me what the general/real world running costs are like? I am looking to buy a car that is cheaper to run than my current non-Saab and have a fear in my head that this...

Recently I started a thread about Aux in which drifted into the realms of DAB units. My conclusion was the best option for Aux in on my 2004 9-3 convertible is an add on DAB unit with aux in as I have in my other car. It feeds down the FM aerial and puts data up using RDS. So I bought everything...

Thanks to Andy, the resident TS vocalist, I came across this very even-handed review of Saab 9000 Turbo from 1991. It was done by MotorWeek, a program produced by Maryland Public Television here in the US. For those of you not from the States, Maryland is a relatively small but densly...

Following is a guest post from someone I’ll simply refer to here as part of the Djup Strupe collective. Enjoy. —— Recently Saab UK released their sales figures for January and opinions on them were less than encouraging. The truth is that UK dealers actually sold a lot of vehicles but...

Am I the only idiot here in the U.S. that has taken my 9000t to the (in my case not-so) local authorized saab servicing center for a 24 point inspection and leave never hearing about the 3 safety recalls the NHTSA has put on it?
