SAABSUNITED

Coming from the Highlands I loved seeing Inverness and environs in the year before I was born…but I am VERY suspicious of those “Central Casting Department” shepherds in kilts! I’ve never seen a shepherd – or […]

For me one of the most positive aspects is the fact that the deal was resolved IN CASH – so less of the agonising hunting around for investment that sadly characterised the previous regime. Sounds like a pretty […]

First question – sorry if it’s obvious – will NEVS be looking to employ as many ex-SAAB employees as possible in Trollhattan?
Both for the workers’ sake, and for the sake of the SAAB heritage, I hope so…

I too assumed from the news story that not only the Griffin, but the current SAAB font set, would be unavailable to NEVS.
These things are surprisingly significant in the market. I hope they come up with a good […]

Most impressive Brad. That’s very easy for one of us old-time Saabsters to say. But the most important part of Tim’s posting was his recognition of what NEVS might mean to the ordinary workers at Trollhattan. For […]

It seems appropriate for SAAB people, in particular, to mark with respect and affection the passing of a man so attuned to both engineering excellence, competence, and style.

All best wishes to you both from Cornwall!

Good to see my local SAAB Indie on SU!
Chris is a good guy and knows his stuff. The 9-3 I bought from his establishment has been a joy…

Precisely my question! Where is Mahindra Bros. in all this? There seemed to be “an understanding” that they were deeply involved in the NevSab consortium…were we all wrong about that?

And so the roller-coaster ride continues. Frankly we could live with less excitement…somehow, I had come to hope that Mahindra Bros. would step in with huge financial backing and save the company as a […]

Damn, I wish I’d realised that was happening in Yeovil yesterday, I would have travelled up from Cornwall for that! Glad you had a good day there, anyway. I spent much of the day working on my “Project” 9000, so a […]

Out of curiosity – was there much surplus money to donate to the Museum in THN?

What an EXCELLENT posting! Clarity, realism and optimism in equal measures.

I wonder if BMW ever were one of the bidders?

My Swedish is a bit ropey…but isn’t “SAAB AB” like saying “Swedish Aircraft Limited Limited”?
That minor observation aside, I really hope this news helps towards trhe SAAB name appearing again on new vehicles […]

When SAAB’s main product was the (original) 95 and 96, the 99 seemed big and exotic. It was a fantastic success. Then the 900 seemed big…and the 9000 seemed enormous. All winners. There is no logical reason for […]

Looks like a front suspension shim to me.

Well-wrapped, admittedly.

That seems unnecessarily negative. The SU crew seem to me to have done a fine job in weeding out the more insubstantial rumours…leaving us SU readers with the clearest view available of what’s going on. No point […]

I put a version of the poster up at work: “Keep Calm and Drive a SAAB” (With the Griffin at the top in place of the Crown). I’ve been asked for copies by other Saab drivers! To make your own, google […]
