A Hungarian Saab Club meeting can certainly draw a crowd - even in the middle of winter!

Ivan’s posted a number of photos from their recent event, where they all had a chance to get up close and personal with the 2008 Saab 9-3 in Snow Silver and running on E85, though that wasn’t the only car there on the green fuel…

Ivan’s friend Ákos owns the Saab 900 convertible that had the Xenon headlights installed recently. It’s a very, very sweet looking machine with its twin exhausts, chromed rims and LEDs as well. Not only is it looking magnificent, but Ivan tells me that he’s currently running it on E85.

It’s the first I’ve heard of it, but apparently there’s an additive that can be used to make the fuel less troublesome on older cars. Ákos’s experience has been trouble-free so far.

Ákos is the editor of one of the popular car magazines in Hungary, TotalCar, so I’m sure a writeup of his E85 experience will be forthcoming in the future.
