The ?? quatre is a really cute car.

My ex GF's dad who had the 900 T16 went on to buy a 9000CDE. That too was AWESOME. It was fast and luxurious and looked the buisness.

2.3 litre turbo. It was like a jet powered Bang & Olufsen showroom.

Cougar - if you give in to your urges, make sure you get the special edition Equipe!

It is a sad state, I had a 9-3 turbo for a lot of years, it was dynamically challenged in the corners but foot down through the third gear was a delight. My dad had a 9000 Carlsson about 1990 and it was a monster. It did have a habbit of blowing the turbo airhose off whilst overtaking a line of traffic which was a bit scary.

I find it hard to see how they can recover. If you have 20k in your pocket do you want to buy a car from a company that has a high possibility of going under. Catch 22.

I was thinking of the Vanden Plas, but you make a convincing argument...!
