Hi everyone! Say hello to the car I picked up this weekend- my new (old) Saab 900 Turbo.
Since my last 900 Turbo, a 1987 8 valve two door saloon model, underwent a gearbox problem a couple of weeks ago (more than repairable- feel free to get in contact if you fancy one!) I have been thinking of using the opportunity to upgrade to the 16 valve model. So I did! I found a nice 1991 T16 S Aero on ebay and bought it! And let me tell you; it's lovely! It features an uprated handling kit and the rare 'red box' APC which boosts it to a rather wonderful 185 bhp!
So my new green beast shall see me blatting around the lanes of Surrey for the forseable future- keep an eye out!

Nice to see your weekend wasn't any worse for having missed the Aston festival - which was quite splendid.

Of which more later when I do something with the photos.
