To all those laughing and making jokes about this... Two years ago I got a DVT as a result of too long sitting down. This is a potentially life threating problem if not spotted (As well as being very painful!) If you get a feeling of cramp in your calf muscle that doesn't go away and is even worse when walking that you can't put down to sport or a muscle strain, go see a doctor immediately! I suffered for nearly 10 days with this and then had the complication of a lung embolism as a result (That's the life threatening part). I ended up in hospital for a week hardly able to breathe and on morphine for the lung pain. I then had to spend 6 months off work recovering. And watch out, I found that some doctors are not good at identifying this problem. Take this seriously...it is not a joke. Now get up and walk around!

errrm, now let me see what's wrong here... 1. Saab are SWEDISH, that's SWEDEN, not SWITZERLAND. 2. Switzerland are not a member of the EU anyway although they are a part of the EEA, so why on earth on your logic should the EU want to buy it anyway. But true, GM were dumb, they showed complete incompetence in managing their business and their aquisitions.

I for one hope that SAAB can move into some caring hands that will allow the company to thrive and innovate as it did in the earlier half of it's life. The death of Saab I think started once GM had it's dirty incompetent hands on it. The demise was signalled after the 900, when they started to become just another Eurobox built on the same chassis as every other boring old Eurobox, shared floor plan shared engines...etc. I once owned a 1974 SAAB 96, it was the most quirky car I ever owned, column shift, freewheel built in to the transmission, a Ford V4 engine. No transmission tunnel, a boot you could sleep inside, all finished in Sh1t Brown, but I loved it, until it caught fire due to my own stupid tuning attempts. The 99 Turbo and the 99 EMS were ground breaking cars in their day, and for a while unbeatable on the rally circuit. I hope Spyker can resucitate the brand, before someone else has to bring the badge back from the dead. Solo
