Replying to: ateixeira (Nov 11, 2009 10:58 am) Yeah 2007 was the last year the V70 was just an S60 wagon with more rear seat room.   Also the last year you could get a real R car with a six speed manual, AWD and 300 horsepower.   The new T6 going in the 2011 Volvos is supposed to be boosted to 300 horsepower. If Volvo adds another 50 horsepower and a manual to the S60 to make another S60R that would be great.

Replying to: andys120 (Nov 11, 2009 11:04 am) Saab 9000 but can't tell the year. Probably a second generation model maybe a 1996?   Edit:   Just noticed it is RHD hmhh so maybe not a 9000. Did Vauxhuall rebadge the 9000 as something for the UK?   Replies to this message: stephen987 (Nov 11, 2009 11:17 am) ateixeira (Nov 11, 2009 11:23 am) texases (Nov 11, 2009 11:43 am) andys120 (Nov 11, 2009 12:00 pm)

Replying to: british_rover (Nov 11, 2009 11:07 am) The first-generation 9000 was based on a platform shared with the Fiat Croma and Lancia Thema. I think this car is part of that generation, since it doesn't have the upward-sweeping window line of the later cars.   Behind it there seem to be a lot of other (newer) Saabs.

Replying to: british_rover (Nov 11, 2009 11:07 am) The rims a quirky, so it must be a Saab, but the headlights are generic, so it must not be a Saab.

Replying to: british_rover (Nov 11, 2009 11:07 am) I think you're correct, it's a match for a second-gen U.S. 9000 ('92-'98) I found, detail for detail, except for the RHD and the turnsignals are amber in the one I found. A British requirement for clear?

Replying to: british_rover (Nov 11, 2009 11:07 am) Saab 9000 but can't tell the year. Probably a second generation model maybe a 1996?   Yep its a second generation ('92-'98) Saab 9000i Saloon, (UK spec, equivalent to a US Spec 9000 CD IIRC.)

Replying to: andys120 (Nov 11, 2009 12:03 pm) That appears to be the nearly-forgotten Saturn L300 sedan (could be an L200 though).

Replying to: andys120 (Nov 11, 2009 12:03 pm) That looks almost exactly like my car:   See more Car Pictures at CarSpace.com   '03 or newer L200 or L300 .. the picture that andy posted doesn't give me a good look at the wheels, which is the most obvious difference. 15" for the L200, 16" for the L300. My L300 also has foglights, which may or may not be on the movie car.   andy, what movie is this picture taken from? Replies to this message: andys120 (Nov 11, 2009 12:34 pm)
