Do you actually think that a '97 9000 is inferior to a '93 9000 ? - aside from having no 'glove box' in preference to a passenger airbag ? When I get my finances back on track I'm intending to get the best '97 - maybe '98 9000 I can lay my hands on. Ideally Aero but Anniversary 2.3 fpt might do ! I gather that a few were even registered in '98. Garham
