Is the engine under all that plastic?

The Saab's clutch is slipping under FULL BOOST CONDITIONS. Coupled with the CONCERNING CLONKS at the front end I suspect a bill for ONE THOUSAND POUNDS CASH (cheques, debit and credit cards are also acceptable) would be coming.

The current WBAC valuation for a working version is £290.

I'm not a massive Saab fanboi and can't do the work myself so I'm now trying to work out what to buy for my rather low budget.

A nice round number to start the day.

Stone chip and crack repaired by auto glass. Still a visible line but it’s very small so hopefully should last me a while.

Nice! I will hopefully post something similar in about 46 miles...

16.7 isn't very round. Better planning next time, or reset it!

Does it have a digital speedo too Mike? I really dislike Porsche’s love of 25mph major speedo increments, and squeezing 0-70 into about 60 degrees of needle sweep....

They do - under the rev counter in the middle gauge.

I knew I should have reset the 16.7....

It’s not that we’re upset, more disappointed.

Dave!

Just be ready to reset the trip 88.8 miles before it hits 88,888 miles and be on a private runway doing 88 mph when it does so to be forgiven

A similar spot the other day, on some handy private runway

It would have been fine if you had retrofitted a Guiberson T-1020 Series 4 radial 9-cylinder Diesel.

I tried to get 123,456 miles on my e46 with 123.4 on the trip and 12:34 on the clock. I fucking missed the timing by about 2 seconds, and the odo went to 123,457 as the trip went to 123.4

Obviously couldn’t get 123456 as it was already past that when I bought it

Ignore the bottom line but this was quite satisfying. Though I just realised I missed 13:37
