The perfect drive......

No, if it was the perfect drive, you'd have weeded it first



seeing as I'm commenting in a thread full of members car photo's, guess I'd better post pics of my new aquisition.




It's a model year 2008 registered in September 2007 2.0T Aero with black sports leather interior, Saab satnav, 10 speaker Premium Audio, Convenience Pack (auto dimming mirror and electric folding wing mirrors), Comfort open, 18" Saab wheels and 11500miles on the clock.

Viewed it last Wednesday and Picked it up this morning.

So nice to be driving a petrol again, so much smoother, even nicer with the top down.



A few little jobs to do to it, like adding my Kenwood headunit, Hirsch pedals and dash, eventually hope to get it Hirsch remapped, but money's too tight at the moment

750bhp on that drive, not too bothered about weeds

Ok Rob,

How about both 99 turbo and Toppola?

A couple of more pics...

Mmmmmm, nice that.

Mine!

Cheers Ian, and just as a quick update, Now have Hirsch dash and pedals fitted and also my Kenwood Satnav has replaced the Saab Satnav:


I have to comment on the quality of the sound, WOW!!!

I have the 10 speaker audio package in this convertible giving me mids and tweets in the dash, centre dash speaker, door bass speakers, mids in the rear quater panels and a sub in the rear seat back, all Saab originals, all powered by the Saab amps connecte via the conversion leads to the speaker outs of my Kenwood headunit. The sound is fantastic, very little rattle from the door panels (there's some at times on very bass intensive music, but usually not noticeable). Can't really tell there's a sub behind the seats, but the bass is definitely present at a good level. The highs are incredibly clear, and I can deafen the whole highstreet in clarity..

Glad I payed a premium price for this car, just for the lack of hassle I've had with the audio system, no having to run new power cables, Rca leads and speaker cables for an aftermarket sub and amp.

The only downside is that I need to locate a converter for the AM/FM antenna. With the non-satnav cars, the radio antenna is a FAKRA connector. With the cars with Satnav fitted, the FAKRA connector is for the GPS antenna and the radio antenna uses a different convension, It comes from Chrsyler I believe, maybe a mini-SMB connection. Ebay have plenty of Chrsyler to DIN adapters, but I haven't got round to ordering one yet. I don't listen to radio very often so it's not an issue at the moment.

New car, well chuffed
