Gents,
this could be very useful, has anyone seen it before ?
EBAY - SAAB PARTS ON CD

Haggag01,

Yes it's an EPC disc (electronic parts catalogue).

I do not believe that there can possibly be any legal copies of this for sale as they are all technically owned by Saab.

This aution appears better presented than most who are blatantly auctioning illegal copies but I'd still be wary.

Saabscene can not condone this sort of auction if illegal.

Andrew

PS do a search through the archives for EPC and see what has been said before.

Not wanting to per-take in any illegal activitys I will give a wide berth, why do saab not sell them to us enthusiasts, save them time and money when we have to go to the parts department.

Because people could then (potentially) buy the parts direct from the orginal manufacturer in applicable cases. That may seem protectionist, but in the real world it's called reasonable business innit.

okay fair enough, but if they just supplied the part no ? and no manufacturer. Our 9ks have not been built for several years now so whats the harm.

EPC only lists the Saab part number. No mention of manufacturer.

OK, I presumed incorrectly.

Haggag01, I have access to a copy, I guess a few people on here do. I didnt pay for it and do not make money from it. The local Saab dealer is quite happy that I have it as it saves him time when I can quote the actual part number I need.
