I hope I am not getting too personal but is your wife going to be able to make these trips to Sweden with you? She sacrificed so much already allowing us to have a great deal of your time over at SU/TS. I hope she doesn’t have more of the same with this gig.

At any rate it is getting a little more Swady around here which is a good thing. I was afraid this site would be too much of a press release type of site. Keep up the good work.

Hi Jeremi. Good to hear from you.

Actually, I’m not running the FB presence. That’s handled by another. But I’ll drop them a note and see if there’s anything that can be done with regard to FB updates.

Hi Swade,
you should search for a Viggen, but it won’t be easy to find a stock one

Steven, reading your blog is a treat! Thanks for taking the time to make your posts so polished, the majority of the bloggers and columnists should come round here, watch and learn.

Having said which, is there any other possibility but the RSS feed (which I don’t use) to be alerted whenever you post? It is my understanding you are now the boss of the Saab Cars FB fanpage, I am all for you beating your own drum there! Much more inspiring than being asked what we do with our Saabs every weekend…

Hello Swade,

Depends on what you want, I really like the 96, that is if you want to go retro. I have a sweet spot for the 99 combi cope(my father bought one in 75 and we had it until 91, when he bought a 9000).

If you want to go for the times when SAAB made it, it is a 99 or 900 Turbo.

I hate to sound like a bad salesperson in Bucharest, but whatever you choose is a good choice.

I happen to have a 93F and it is just great in every way. Simple, awesome to drive and so pretty. Quite rare too.
