So now I have a new car! Picked her up today and have done some good driving in her already. The decision was between many cars in this range, from the Renault Laguna to the Bmw 3 series. After a lot of testing and calculations i found out that this Saab 9-3 would give me the most car for the money, and still a car that has a good resale value. The Audi A4 and the 3 series, was a bit over my budget, and the Laguna was a bit under. The Citroen C5 was also strongly considered, but that also, as the Laguna, has poor resale value in Norway. Generally the swedish cars has strong resale value in Norway.
The car is a 9-3 Sport Combi 1.8T BioPower.
So I am able to fuel E85 on it, as well as 95/98 unleaded.
Though the E85 is not much sold up here, only one gas station in my town has it. This engine is stated at 150 hp on 95 unleaded and 175 on E85. I am considering a chip after I have broken her in. The swedish company BSR have a chip that gives 220 hp on both E85 and 95/98 unleaded.
So here is some pics I took tonight
