Favorite Saab memory - there's a lot of them. One that sticks in my mind is when my '85 C900 (purchased new) was about 7-8 years old, I drove with a friend out to Louisville, Kentucky for a music festival.
On the way out there on an interstate highway the car suddenly seemed to lose power so I pulled over to the shoulder. It turned out that the throttle cable had snapped. I was able to repair it with a shoelace. Not only did that get the car to Kentucky and back but I never did fix it properly for the next 7-8 years that I owned the car. It ran just fine off the shoelace until rust and yet another transmission failure meant it was time to move on to another Saab.
Saab - the car you can repair with a shoelace!
