Saab 9-3 2.8 Turbo X

Hi has anyone actually driven the above mentioned car. I currently own a Focus ST and looking for something abit bigger. The performance figures look good on paper and 4wd would be nice. Any comments greatly appreciated.

They seem pretty good value, for example

Reading several reviews seems to indicate it's pretty boring to drive and doesn't seem that fast compared to the stats on paper. 155mph, 0-60 5.4 etc.

Saabs are looking good value, and that is a nice looking car.

Has it got the same engine out of the Vectra VXR?

Think it's the same Engine as the Vectra vxr but it has the updated turbo out of the insiginia. I'm not 100% sure though.

Wow that is good value in my eyes.

The exhaust note on these is amazing. 2.8 V6 produces 250 with a 4WD set-up. Very nice indeed.

They are 280 bhp, A remap is something like

Power & Torque:

Orig: 280Hp / 400Nm
Stage 1: 300Hp / 480Nm

Just be nice to have something different. I might have to test drive it

Nice car, and thats a bargain. I think the cheapest one I saw a year ago (when I was looking to buy a awd car) was over 17k

Dont forget it'll be £445 a year to tax it...
