Krzys Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Right, many of you will know I sold the Civic before Christmas!Some of you know I bought an Omega 3.2 MV6! I got it cheap for a laugh and was planning to run it for a year while I decide what to buy and give myself time to save up!Unfortunately the Omega is in bad shape, worse than I thought when I first saw and bought the car and so, has to go already! So I've had to bring forward the purchase of my next car, I spent a week solid on various sites like Autotrader, Honest John (Brilliant for reviews and such!) and of course the insurance companies for quotes!I finally decided on the Saab 9-5!This on is in Aero spec, sometimes called "HOT" on a 55 plate!Some numbers for you......250bhp & 270Ib/ft of torque! 0-60 in 6.8 seconds and a top speed of 152mph (155mph if it was the saloon!).No real plans for this other than to try and keep it in as good a condition as it's in now! Will put my headunit in though, 32GB USB stick demands it! So now, for some pictures! These are all from the dealers webpage as I don't pick it up until Saturday!

S4DAM Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 you'll be the new mack daddy in this pimp mobile, 250 horses yes please, good choice. would be interesting when a 1.8 vti pulls up next to you... from one extreme MB6 to the other 9-5 , even with 250bhp still looks like a very civilized car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to try and not fettle with it S4DAM said: you'll be the new mack daddy in this pimp mobile, 250 horses yes please, good choice. would be interesting when a 1.8 vti pulls up next to you... from one extreme MB6 to the other 9-5 , even with 250bhp still looks like a very civilized carIt drives beautifully! Would be pretty interesting because even with all the power it's still heavy! But if you go by the books it should out accelerate the Civic's but I'll have to find out in the real world!

Krzys Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Not a fan of three-spokes! Wood trim could be something for the future, see if someone does a kit to swap out for something darker perhaps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
