Aero-X Video
I’m pleased to be able to present a video record of my day with the Aero-X today.
I went along to the Media Day for the Australian International Motor Show, being held at Darling Harbour in Sydney.
Saab’s display was just the second one of the morning, so whilst the rest of the media trudged around looking [...]
Australian Motor Show - not completely work safe
The following is a brief wander around the Australian International Motor Show, looking at various manufacturers etc with a slightly irreverent eye.
The video does contain some casual observances of various people of the fairer sex, as well as two Saab nuts giving consistently negative opinions about all other brands seen.
The last five seconds are a [...]
Some Aussie SportCombi news
It’s been a bugbear of mine that SportCombi buyers in Australia had two choices only: an entry model Linear and a somewhat more expensive Aero. Those that wanted something in between had to make do with the Linear, or went elsewhere.
Not any more - here’s the news straight from the source.

(Early) Thursday Morning Snippets
Hi all, from a somewhat-warmer-than-home Sydney. I’m in town for the Australian International Motor Show, which will feature a vehicle we’re all now quite familiar with - the Saab Aero-X. As I write this the Aero-X is somewhere within a 10km radius of where I’m sitting. It probably has a cloth draped [...]

I’ll be going to the press day tomorrow, which will be the first time I’ve attended anything in such a capacity. Regular TS visitor and owner of this month’s calendar vehicle, Richo, will be coming along with me, admitted [...]
New Mega Saab Search
I’ve enabled a new Saab-focused search using a service by Google called Co-op. Basically, the search engine is focused on a number of nominated Saab sites only, filtering the results you’ll receive and hopefully increasing their relevance.
Upon inception, the search engine was set up to provide results from the following Saab websites:
Trollhattan Saab
Saab Videos

TS Podcast 1 - The Future of Saab
I think I’ve finally got most of this podcasting thing sorted. I’m just waiting on iTunes to list it in their directory for the benefit of anyone that might want to subscribe to it (though i’ve no idea if or why anyone would)
So, after a very long night and a similarly long day, have [...]
