2004 2dr Convertible turbocharged 175hp 2.0L I4
5-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 1. Its less than my old car. 2. The average figure I actually achieve are less than quoted on the manual! Unlike other cars that quote unachievable values. 3. On a highway the petrol version consumes just 1L more than the diesel see full Saab 9-3 review
