Hi

Please don't all shout at me

I've recently traded in my Superb Elegance 2.8 v6 auto for a demonstrator Saab 93 2.0 Aero auto. Kept the Fabia though for swmbo (and to justify my presence on Brisky

I've had a look at some of the Saab forums but can't make up my mind which is the best one (or as varied as Brisky)

Anyone any knowledge of these forums and can offer recommendations?

Thanks

I haven't had a Skoda for more than a year now, also moving across to Saab, but a 9 3 convertible 2.0t.

I use UKSaabs quite a lot, however it's not a patch on this site, nor are the members anywhere near as friendly and helpful. Can't say that's true for all of them as some have been very helpful, however it seems very clicky (spelling).

For info, Saab central takes some beating and really is very good and extremely useful.

The Saab it's self is excellent.

Cheers
Lance

Hi Lance

Thanks for the info. I'll have a look again at the ones you suggest. It will take a lot to beat Brisky - I've had a great deal of help (and laughs) over the past couple of years on this site.

I'm getting used to the Saab. It's only a couple of inches shorter than the Superb but feels much smaller inside. And the boot is about half the size! I also had a look at the convertible but decided the climate in this part of the world would restrict open-top days!

I must say the discounts on pre-reg Saabs is amazing. Mine had 1000 miles on it and was 9 months old when I bought it. Every extra (no sun roof tho!) is there and it was around £13k less than the new list price! And I got more than twice as much for the Superb p/x than the quote from a Skoda dealer!

Good luck with your convertible

Very true, we even let people with volvos on here

Good choice of SAAB, I've always liked the 9-3 especially the aero. I used to have an old 9-3 low pressure turbo auto and it was extremly nice. SAAB's are odd in that they are nothing special but once you have one you never want to leave them for another manufacturer, they have that little something that you can't explain.

Hope you have many happy years with it and don't forget to put some piccies in the members cars section.
