brilliant

came across the vector 1.9 estate for the right money. lovely dark grey with silver alloys, travelling long distances in this car has been a real pleasure. The seats are by far the most comfortable I've ever sat in. no drivers backache and felt perfectly fine on my 6hr trip. one thing i have been disappointed with is the swirl valve this popped off and went into limp mode, but this has now been rectified, one thing to watch for also the dpf system can give problems especially if you only do short trips, so id avoid the diesel. fixtures are fine and well laid out as you'd expect from a saab. fuel economy could be better but this is effected by the weight of the car, but im more than happy to sacrifice that for the overall driving experience, such a shame saab are no longer going.
