So, finally the "European car manufacturer" has been "named" that are one of the interested parties to pick up Saab from the administrators. A "Large German manufacturer based in Munich" (BMW) it would seem are looking to develop a FWD chassis and as Saab's Phoenix platform was already...

Just in case anyone here has or likes Saabs, today is part of the "We are many, we are Saab" international convoy/gatherings in support of the brand. Home - Outside-Saab.com I'm attending one at Cranfield in Milton Keynes (where Saab GB was) at 11am today, so anyone who's close by and would...

Here. From the guys at The Truth About Cars. Apparently, Saab never designed a "clean-sheet new engine". I wonder what they'll say about Mercedes when its time comes?

Went to visit my parents today, a total of 370 miles round trip with the return journey taking 3 hours 40 minutes because of a serious accident on the A30 into Salisbury. This is the longest trip in the C320 so far and within an hour I was experiencing discomfort especially in my lumbar area...

I'm looking for a cheap diesel tow car for less than £2k. Max tow weight of 1000kg is fine. If you know of one in your area that you can personally recommend please let me know. I'm near Banbury. I'm willing to travel, but ideally less than 50 miles. Thanks.

Help - I really don't know what to do. Heart is ruling over head, but they both keep changing their mind... Last year I took an Insignia on long term rental. It costs £480 with no mileage cap, and no maintenance liability. When it gets a bit leggy (15k or so) they change it for another...

Nice day, never having had a proper go at cleaning the Saab, and fancied stealing back the half day that work cost me on Sunday. Not a proper 'detail' but the Merc needs some serious attention, so I thought I would practice also. My assistant decided to get involved after this photo...

Some nice chap in a black Saab 9-3 decided he would pull out from behind a Transit van on the dual carraigeway coming past Swindon tonight (A419 I think...) without looking, as I was pretty much along side him. This caused me to slam the anchors on, veer towards the central reservation to...
