I decided nearly 30 years ago that a Saab was the car for me. My brother came home from work one evening with a story about a colleague who’d stuck his automatic dad’s 900 in 1st insteax of reverse. He took out the garage and a laundry room wall, sdumping the washing machine in the back garden.
He was pretty late for work, but arrivied in the 900.
