Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Had a Saab approved Hirsch conversion done by the dealer prior to purchase to up the power to 195 bhp. This makes a huge difference but increases the torque steer to you really need to hang on under hard acceleration. Corners well and can really mnove.
What's it like to park?
No problem. Rear parking sensors are extremely useful.
