Enjoying the 9-5 Aero Wagon

Finally I can relax and enjoy the simple lines of the 9-5 Aero Wagon  – safe in the knowledge there's no more engine building to do!

I've now passed 140,000km, about 300km into the re-rebuild.

I want to do a compression test after another few hundred km to get some idea of how the rings / bores are bedding in. Feels pretty good, be nice to see some high numbers though.

I've not tackled any of my jobs yet, I am especially keen to get a polisher on it.. just got to buy one..

I genuinely could not have got this car on the road without the amazing support of places like OzVolvo and the various Saab forums – I'm constantly amazed how much help is out there.

And of course, I'd have been stuck without the help of James at OzVolvo bashing out that tool for me. So, hoo-bloody-rah for community!
