Can anyone point me to a page where I can >read more on the technical specs of all the models? Thanks in >advance.. I had similar questions, but I'm not in the UK. However, on the engine is either 2.3t or 2.3T. The small t is a LPT turbo engine, and will not have (at least mine didn't) a turbo boost gauge. The Turbo 6 (VE? can't remember at the moment) will have a gauge on it. However, that was the 9.3 model, certainly. The 9.5 models were a little scarce to see. I think that the Aero probably will have the HOT, but that's a guess. www.saabusa.com and look for certified pre owned.... That might give you some archive information. Cross referencing www.saab.com and finding Great Britain says that an "estate" is also a "station wagon" or "wagon". Harvey
