Some sort of special edition. Is it any good? I know the Vauxhall link but don't regard that as a bother.

It's pretty good. Saab/Haldex bespoke awd with rear E-LSD is much better than system in VAG stuff, smooth torquey turbo V6 (300hp+ with a remap wink) lots of kit in most of the Turbo-X cars (if you don't mind acres of all black interior) and are good value for the money. Some of the interior parts quality isn't up to the German makes standard, but it's a good 'left field' choice.

I've herd about remaps on them. This is a factory approved thing is that right?

There is a factory approved dealer installed one, which is the Hirsch Performance pack, but it's more than just a remap as it includes a better intercooler and air intake system...so not just a cheap remap.

But, if the car is still in warranty, then this is the way to go.

However, if the car is out of warranty, then a Maptun remap only is the best bet smile

Some reviews on Saabscene.co. I recall that there were complaints about the very harsh ride...
