No self-respecting classic owner today would ever allow their beast out on the road with a sagging number plate. This does lead us to a very serious point though. Do you remember the Saab adverts from the 80s where that sexy looking C900 was cruising along towards the edge of a cliff and (as if by the magic of film special effects) turn into a Viggen and mach-3 into the distant night? Boy, was I surprised when my 900 did *not* spout wings and turn into a plane, but simply plummet into oblivion :) Can I sue Saab for mis-representation? Only in America, eh? Hmmmmm, I sense yet another re-visit to that wonderful "flying Saab" (otherwise known as "what are the mid-flaps for") thread that we all know and love .... :) [Keep tuned SkodaPilot - Saabs can fly too] Lovingly, Paul 1985 900i 16V 1989 900 Turbo S http://pjgh.go.dyndns.org/saab/index.html
