    Yeah, my Dad has a 9-3 before, key goes inbetween the seats and you can't take it out until you put the car in reverse

    That car doesn't do that though, probably down to all the Italian cars it shares it's design with?

    First ever Saab after having hand me down Hondas up to that, and got bitten by the make. I 'd love a classic 900.Actually my 9-5 was on DD (again) recently. She may be still there.

    Nobody seems to have noticed yet, that it is neither a 9-5 or a 9-3. it is infact a 9000. hence the key in the usual position.

    glad we got that one sorted out.....


  • Posts: 23,339 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    ... I reckon everyone noticed tbh.

    I do know that, most Saabs have it in the central position

    I like to go off topic sometimes:)

    Here is my offering to Bangernomics.

    It's my own car and I've reduced the price because I wasn't getting the interest that I thought I would.
    Is the ad okay? Any tips? Is it too dear?

    Any help appreciated.

    Gamble, but I'd take a punt on this one...

    If it didnt work out, surely the scrap value and alloys would recoup your outlay.

    I have to admit to being a bit of a Rover snob, they are one brand of car I really wouldn't be seen dead in. But a friend of mine has a 75 diesel and loves it. It does have a really pleasant interior too.

    I think the 75 is a nice car and quite a nice estate car at that :P

    its probably a thirsty bastard and it looks a little clapped out but a wash and a polish would do wonders for it i'd say. If you weren't going far it could be good.
    Bought the Merc, delighted with it! Only have to change the duo valve to get the heat going! Some pull out it for the milage!

    It was a '99 Merc C250 Manual. Knew well when I went down they were into the second hand car/ parts business. The Merc I got though seems 100%, waiting for the bits to give her a full service. Only problem is she is not blowing hot air, pinned it down to the duo valve so ill be replacing that. Other than that she was spot on!

    there literally has to be a catch, that car is worth closer to twice that. i paid that sort of money for the glanza.

    if thats genuine someone is going to be getting the bargain of the year.

    Exactly what I was thinking, too good to be true.
