2004 Saab 9-5 Aero review
The only underwater hotel in Europe was built in Sweden. The Swedes like to do things differently. This historically applied to their cars as well as their holiday accommodation. However, the Swedish car makers are no longer independent. Volvo Cars is Ford owned and Saab is very much part of the General Motors family. So is the Saab 9-5 Aero tested here just another GM offering?
