Reluctant sale due to change of circumstances

Please get in touch for more details.

Thanks for all the replies.
I live in the pennines and used to run an E280 Merc estate - RWD and auto with no traction control and didnt get stuck. Last 2 winters ran some winter tyres.
Wondering whether to bother with the Saab. Wondering whether traction control helps?
Why no winter setting on the autobox as the vauxhalls have it?

Thanks for the advice.
Toby

Hi,
New to Saab's and just wondered how people have got on in the snowy winters when running normal tyres?
Thanks Toby

Hi,
I'm looking for an idea that would help protect the painted top of my rear bumper from scratches as my hounds get in and out.
I have seen this on ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SAAB-95-Estate-September-2005-onwards-rear-bumper-protector-/261045525660?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3cc7869c9c but really trying to spend less these days so wanting a more economical fix.
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks Toby.

I have noticed that after returning from a couple of drives where I got up to 70mph that the bonnet has popped up as if the bonnet release had been pulled. Any ideas why?
Is this a common thing?
Cheers

No luck. Wonder how much difference ac makes to the MPG?

Someone at work asked if I knew anyone who wanted to buy a car as they had one surplus to requirements and they didn't want to advertise it. After a couple of days of thinking about it I agreed to buy for what they had it valued at webuyanycar.com - I did get 12 months MOT too as it was due to expire - passed with flying colours.

Would love to know if I can default the climate control to not using the aircon unless I turn it on - any ideas?

Got the luggage net I bought from eBay and fitted it - looks ok.

Yes they are for the thumbs - haven't really found much use for them yet (gear shifters that is - my thumbs help me grip things)

Thanks.
I have an oil and filter change booked for thursday as its 7k since it was done. Ordered an air filter to fit myself and also bought a retractable cargo net that I will fit this week - help stop my greyhounds getting drool on the leather seatbacks!! My estate is the largest 2 seater in town!

Thanks for your comments - it did seem a good buy - I got £2100 for my 1994 E280 estate so I had some left over for some fresh tyres.
I am gradually fettling the car and when I get some hot weather I will freshen the seats with the wet/dry vac.
I do like the idea of heated seats tho - never thought a Scandinavian car would come without them!! At least it has the cupcake holder.

After 20 years of Merc W124's I was offered this estate with 89000 miles and FSH for £1800. Seemed a good price so here I am. Would love to hear from anyone who has fitted heated seats.
