In all seriousness it looks nice, hope you enjoy.
 
Yes indeedy. Your wheel looks like it's not faded or anything, just shiny so a magic erase will take away the shinyness nicely.

My wheel was shiny like yours but one side slightly faded when I used the wrong cleaner when I first got the car (I know, sad times....) so I'm going to get it refurbed - the results are very good after a magic erase, especially for a fiver for a huge block of the stuff as you only need a 2" cut square of the stuff.

It looks good Iain, I really think it looks good from the outside and other than the grey plastic, I think it's fine on the inside too.
 
Oh btw, what is this Magic Erase stuff ? ...a google search yields it could be all sorts of things :p ...if it could return my steering wheel from shiny to matte I'd be very pleased, although I suspect mine is a bit too shiny.

Cheers :)

I know the style of the interior isnt to everyones taste, but in terms of quality, it's no worse than anything else non german

I was interested in the 2.2 diesel in black but after reading the associated problems with them I bottled out.

Apparently the diesels in these are pretty shocking, reliability is woeful and they're not that great to drive anyway. The petrols are the opposite :cool:

Guessing it's this stuff?

DOKTER POWERRRRRRRRR is the correct stuff although many supermarkets/home stores inc Halfords sell other brands that are cheaper but in smaller block sizes. All do the same thing.
 
Yep that's it. I spent a good 4 hours doing practically my whole interior at the weekend. Looks almost brand new now.
 
Iain, do you think the Turbo needle pushing the fuel needle down was intentional by Saab? :P

I must say i do like the look of these, would much rather one than a Vectra, anyway.

Probably :) What was intentional is the needles are all little aerofoils :D

I would hate a vectra, but other than genetics, there's nothing vectra about it
 
Well I might just take a trip to Homebase and see if I can get some then, thanks for the tip ...although I really can't imagine how it will fix my steering wheel ...still it looks like it can do a lot of other things in anycase.

It certainly removed all the ingrained dirt in my leather-coloured vinyl on my interior.
 
I get 25mpg driving to work and back etc, not sure on a run yet, suppose I will find out on saturday, but I would guess around 30-32mpg?
