Default My Saab 9-3, now with Eibach springs fitted

I thought I'd take some pics of it, since its now got them fitted, and is all back together.

















It handles pretty nice as well! Its slightly more solid, but nice and smooth at low speed.

Over all I'm very impressed!

It looks rather low though! LOL.

It is rather low isnt it! LOL... I think I've also convinced Tim from Chris Knott insurance of one too. Its an awesome car, I love it to bits. Good on diesel, insurance and tax are good, and it shifts! With all its toys what more could I ask for!

I think it'll drop a little more yet, as it still hasnt settled. Was easy enough to change all 4 springs in the end though, I have to say I love working on the Saab because everything just comes undone without seizing or breaking!

Besides the gear selector unit which has seized... Its rather ironic really that both broken front springs, the alternator failing and the gear selector seizing (that still needs sorting) are all common faults associated with my car.

Still, I'm good for many more miles motoring once the gear selector has been replaced.

Thats been replaced with a house! lol.

I'll just be left with Saab now, and maybe in the future I'll look at getting something else. For now I'm more than happy with this, I've owned it for the last couple of years, and it'll be here for many more yet.
