Congratulations, Mr Dörrich!
Hopefully “your” 9-4x will be built soon again and in large numbers!
He did quite good work on the 9-4x under the circumstances. Free from the shackles of GM, I’m sure he’ll do great work and much more creative too!
CONGRATULATIONS PETER! 🙂
And thanks for your talk and answering questions at the SU-October-arrangement!
Congratulations to Peter. It is persons like Peter who will make Saab great in the future if they get past the current hurdles they face. I hope all of the great employees stay loyal to Saab through these tough times.
Listened to Peter at the October Fest, when he talked about the development of the 9-4x.
Thanked him for a good presentation and I would like to say that I understand that he is rewarded.
My first impression was: Nice, competent guy to be working together with.
Glad for his and SAAB’s sake.
