JoeS Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Ha ha, nah sorry mate, just a crap 70s Schweedish stereotype thing. I agree, Saabs are nice. I remember the old 900 turbo from the 70s and 80s - a tank, but a rocket powered one. REMEMBER WHERE THE KEY GOES, KIDS One of my favourite quirks about them, fools anyone else who drives it. best are the heated seats on chilly mornings... really lovely. @ Tess, I suppose they appeal to a certain taste. I'm on my fourth one now... love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul2412 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I've got a 316 compact and although it has less power than other BM's its still got a 1.8 engine. I got it when it'd done 25,000 miles now done 70,000 and the only thing that has been needed was some new tyres. Very reliable car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Bull Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Do u mean a remap? Yeah thats it a remap, looked at the figures for my car and it gives around 330bhp, with a big increase in torque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
