gorgeously ugly-and bile coloured!

I've had my eye on these for a while http://www.simplyclassics.co.nz/vehicles/V396_1974... STOP LAUGHING! There's another even more atrociously colored one for sale in Cheshire, England (it's purple) but Aus is closer.

WHY ROGER WHY?!?!?!?!

I kinda like them, evokes memories of rallys I was far too young to watch the first time around


Or you could always do this

[Roger A]

Yes, That's largely my motivation, too. I remember getting any rallying / performance driving book I could out of the Manurewa public library when I was a teen and something about those Carlsson-era Saabs caught my attention;and I think that pimped version is cool-vaguely reminiscent of early 70s Alfa Giulietta veloce-which I'm tempted by too! Anyway, I've bought a 96 off trademe. It's powder blue and about 10cm long.....

Also available in a delightful puce, or is that puke? http://www.uksaabs.co.uk/download.php?id=8688&...

Okay, I'm getting carried away now....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ILwJQLSugQ&mode=related&search= I particularly like the first comment. (Who were these moths and why couldn't they drive their own Saab around Mexico?)

Anyone else think it's time for an intervention?

ROGER... WE HAVE THE PLACE SURROUNDED, COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP, KEEP YOUR WALLET WHERE WE CAN SEE IT< PLACE IT ON THE GROUND AND STEP AWAY!!!

But seriously, from their rallying days they ARE cool cars, although not my cup of tea...... mmmmm tea

Just when you thought I was cured, or at least in remission, along comes this!

I have an article on one of the old rally Saabs in a magazine somewhere actually, maybe I'll scan it for you at some stage

Thanks!
