Saab stories... 850

posted by  someone claiming to be bill d cat on  Thu Jan 30 02:32 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I've had 2 pre-GM Saab 900s, one made it to just under 300,000 miles and was more reliable than my Volvo, the other one ... well, I bought a Volvo.

I think most college students "should" have better things to do with their time than mess around with old furin' cars: papers, reading, grades, getting into grad/professional school ... Unless, of course, they ENJOY messing around with old furrin' cars.

A Nissan minivan isn't a bad choice from a safety perspective because of the "dissimilar vehicle height" phenomenon, the white car in the crashtest is a Volvo...
