My mates at Auto Motor and Sport in Sweden were at Kiruna, just like the rest of the motoring press, and recorded a great video showing the excellent traction qualities of the Saab 9-3 Turbo X driving the ice roads they carved up there.

It’s in Swedish, so only the linguistically flexible will understand it, but the pictures speak many thousands of words.

And memo to Saab, if you ever feel like bringing a blogger from Australia up to the Arctic circle……. I’ve just got to get up there one of these days!
