Just imagine the points system
You would buy the car from Uncle Ern and they buy a contract to be able to drive it - on his wacky terms.
ABS - you don't need driver aids!
Grippy tyres - you're driving too fast, we'll take those off you as well

I was under the impression the deadline was 22:00 hrs last night and if a buyer wasn't found it was cutains for SAAB.
Must try harder

Yeah, but who at general motors would say "no, you're a minute late, we're not taking your millions."

Let Spyker have it, I think it would work wonders for Saab.

Maybe he saw how much cash the Phoenix Four managed to make out of Rover and wants to have a go at the same business plan with Saab.

I hope he buys Saab myself. Give him a new toy to play with and maybe we'll see him a little less in F1

Would be nice to see the return of a British owned volume car maker.
