In fact, the very start of it when the hangar doors open and the Viggen rolls forward looks like a precise remake of the original. On the original that is cut with a C900 rolling forward and a couple of shots of Mr Sunglasses :) The soundtrack is quite loud and confusing with a female voice slightly distorted. The advert then follows the Viggen and the C900 (cutting between) as they get faster and faster and ultimately, the Viggen takes off. Hmmm! That wouldn't pass the Trades Description Act today :) > I wonder if that is a U.K. Only video or Saab Sweden ad or both? I wonder if it was around 1985 for the "SAAB Aero T16 har landat" campaign in Sweden. It looks like a flat nose on the video. Paul 1989 900 Turbo S http://saab.go.dyndns.org/
