@Anon73618 You really think the Puma looks generic compared to a Miata? Really? What else on the road looks anything like a Puma?

[@elnyoutube123]

@Anon73618 I have to disagree with you on that. The Puma looks like a Puma from a mile away. A Miata just looks like a generic blob designed by slaves.

I like the Saab too. Estates are cool. Saab’s are cool. The alloys are mean. Love the roof rack and all that space. Cruise control. Lovely interior. That’s actually a bloody nice motor

The Key between the seats started with the SAAB 99. It was placed there as an anti-theft device to lock the manual shift linkage into reverse...

[@kyriakostsaknakis7741]

@@themightydash1714 well its some sort of closed type engine. So if you have a major fault on the engine you might as well say goodbye. Because it's not a Japanese car that can last a long time with just basic maintenance. I know for a fact that it's a really beautiful car and fast and comfy But since my family has owned one can't really say it was much of a joy being quite often in a garage after 100k miles Not so reliable as a Honda which we own for 15, has gone for 350k miles and still nothing is broken

Given the production value and content of this channel at the moment, I can’t see it being long before CT is on TV or streaming services.

[@juliusillman2141]

Dont think they should, for a very long time atleast. If they step up to streaming theyre gonna repeat all the stuff the boys did back in proper top gear. They need to do their own thing, probably figure out what it is first.

[@craig855s]

@@juliusillman2141 Staying on YT means they can be their own bosses rather than becoming scripted, fake and stale which is what has ruined TGT and TG (they were ruined probably a decade ago yet i still watch them). CT is leaps ahead of those fools now. Just need more people to wake up to them on youtube and get that sub count up to to the moon

[@Jonathan-do1sj]

@@craig855s They actually already have bosses. Alex and the crew do not own CT and the revenue from the channel goes to the company, not them. I believe they are under contract too. Point is, switching to streaming probably won't change much

@@Jonathan-do1sj Actually the "bosses" are in the same way as Amazon is to TGT. Have a shit load of money and tell them to fuck off and make money back. Now on TGT, The trio aren't in charge. But here, Alex is the head of the KZbin channel so he still has creative control

@Do One That's not hard. German cars haven't had great reliability for ages. Even my Lotus is more reliable than the last Audi I owned.

[@aston-martin-internationalist]

@Do One agreed, Vectra C is a decent car. They might be a little bland, but they got a very unfair rap from the motoring press. Great mechanicals, easy to drive and very comfortable and in the right trim, they look rather nice (SRI X-pack on the runout models particularly).

03:30 The key goes into the centre console in Saabs because it unlocks the gearbox. It's an anti-theft measure.

[@mowler8042]

huh but who would steal a Saab? ha ha ha

[@alexprag2866]

That’s for the older saabs, not on this generation, on the older it would let you lock the car only if the cars in reverse and it would lock into that

[@vibingwithvinyl]

No. The original reason to place the ignition lock in the centre console (on Saab 99) was indeed to avoid injury on drivers knee during a crash. The gearbox lock on reverse was simply done because a steering lock wasn't really feasible then.

[@gitaarmovies2003]

Doesn't unlock nor lock the gearbox.
