A Saab floating out of the front yard on the boom of a crane, that's never a good sign. In fact, this Saab 9000 CD managed to get off the road in a rabid way into private gardening property....

How time flies. More than 10 years ago, when the SaabBlog project was still young, I spoke to a dealer about high mileage. He doesn't buy anything over 100.000, he said...

The wait for our Citroën city car seems to be a never-ending story. The C3 Aircross, ordered in January, was supposed to be delivered in August. The delivery date was non-binding, it was not met, which is not…
