I watched the video, but in the end what does that "extra" button do?  And for the 900 destroyed in the video (though that it came from the junkyard I guess) |

It made the orange upholstery go brighter orange. |

The one destroyed was C689 SGX: C689SGX 1986 SAAB Model 900 I https://hpicheck.com/consumer/?supplier=&vrm=C689SGX but I can't find it on DVLA, so probably off the road for a while. -- Last edit: 2012-03-12 19:01:01 |

The extra button is usually a factory wired for dealer install accessories such as the fog lamp. One time I rented an old white 1972 SAAB 99 during the service of my old 1972 SAAB 99. I tried the extra button on the white SAAB, the car went dead. So, I switched it back on and started the car up and went merrily  |

Most of the Saabs were provided by owners club - behind scenes photos at http://saabclub.co.uk/index.php/latest-news.html (as this is their Latest News page, the link may not remain direct for long).

We have a set of Saab Turbos - /vehicles_make-SAAB_model-Turbo.html - and another set as Saab 99 Turbos - /vehicles.php?make=SAAB&model=99+Turbo&modelMatch=1&modelInclModel=on . As far as I can see they are the same and should be merged. Do we prefer Turbo or 99 Turbo? |

When I was a young motor mechanic myself, a colleague and my boss used to have lunch (fish and chips) with the Boss's mate the Owner, Ron Bailey, the Salesman, Cedric Cole, at Blacon Motors in Chester. I remember the SAAB Turbo being launched at Blacon Motors and I'm sure the first one I ever saw had a registration number very similar, if not the very DCA 54S. Can someone confirm this was Blacon Motors' demonstrator or have I deamt all of this? |

99 should be the model name, not extra info. |

@Dywlc - Yes this car came from Blacon Motors and would have been sold by Cedric. It's been owned by Chris Foxley since around 1979...I don't remember if it was a demo first, but he is only the second registered keeper. It's still in the area, Chris lives in North Wales. |
