Very good thought Ando.
My 1971 Valiant is a colomn shift manual, and the ignition key (colomn mounted) can not be removed unless in reverse, and gearstick can not be moved until ignition key is off lock.
But I suspect the Valiant would be a mechanical linkage from ignition barel to colomn shift, I would think the SAAB may be mechanical aswell (reason why key is in centre console close to gearstick), But I do not know for a fact.
