TV advert worry
A new TV advert claims that Saabs stay glued to the road. So how am I
supposed to drive it?

Johannes,
I ask that you kindly record it and e-mail me that you have it. Where is this TV advert being shown and what geographic? I want to post this on the saab videos website

UK .. Maybe elsewhere?
"Knowing what keeps an aeroplane in the air helps us keep our cars on the
road" ... Or something like that. It's a stab at the aircraft heritage/BFJ
campaign.
But yes ... If it's glued to the road, it ain't gonna move! Still, not as
bad as the vapour trails advert, which gave the impression that new SAABs
leave oil smoke trails through Stockholm to the tune of Chikinki

Yes it's in UK. I'm sure they said "glued to the road". But they don't send
the ad very often. I can record digitally from my TV card, but I don't have
video editing software to cut a piece from a long recording. I'll see what
I can do.

TV advert worry
Johannes,
Thank you! Even a RAW video would be fine, because the clip is probably only 30 seconds. I think 30 seconds of raw digital video equates to roughly 250 Megabytes total which could be popped onto a 650 or 700MB CD. I could take care of the rest for you.
Much appreciated.
SG

Do you have a Turbo model?
Wind it up to about 2500 RPM in third, then put it to the floor.
That will "un-stick" it pretty quickly!
