What a car.............
I love the garish yellow and the nice cheery red..
They are a good look, only downside is pipe and slipper car, but then hey, most of us on here drive ex taxi rather than ex police car.....LOL

My cousin had one and it regularly did 160 mph....
Was still a bit of a tank so we were reluctant to go any faster.

i know the 850 won't win any awards for styling but the saab 9000 is just rank in the look department, atleast the 850 looks the part.

Had the 140,000 mile service done today on my 850R at the volvo main dealer £443 which also included auto box oil change
expensive or what & thats not a big service either
,came out with a clean bill of health though.
