P&G FTW

As regarding roling hills, and twisty roads, I think the current tank in the Saab will be circa 39mpg.. thats mainly done over 2 days in the pissing rain down A/B roads in the west highlands.. good times!

sounds like the grill mod may be a plan for myself- the car has plenty of gaping holes at the front.

Whats this with the Gaff tape? I cant quite envisage it...
