Ad it up, Jay

Not much time today due to work commitments. Have fun y’all.

We’ve talked about ads here at Trollhattan before. I still owe everyone my thoughts on what would be a good ad for the 9-7x. I’ve always liked Saab’s advertising. Like the cars, it always came accross as being pretty subtle, and [...]

Aussie 99 forum

Dynamic Sydneysider Brendan Burdon has pulled his finger out and created an Aussie Saab 99 registry and an Aussie 99 forum to go with it.

UPDATE 2: As if on cue, here’s another story on future vehicle and propulsion delivery, [...]
