Poor old thing, it had been advertised in the local paper for over a month, the price getting lower every week. It was too cheap for a 7 year old car but it frightened the locals (Scotland) because there was no Saab dealer anywhere near. I thought they were ugly but at the same price as a very rusty Ford Capri and after actually driving it, I was hooked. Now, many Saabs later with only one Alfa and a Citroen as digression, we still have them.
