About 40 SAABs gathered in the Devon sunshine this morning – appropriately for SAAB’s aeronautical background, at a World War 2 airfield near Plymouth! Everything from the V4 96 to the 9-5 Station wagon was represented, with everything in-between as well. A good meeting, overflowing with the SAAB passion and enthusiasm we would all expect.

Chris was a great host. He says he counted 45 in total including a few that turned up at the garage only. Well done Chris.
Fantastic turnout but boy was that wind cool, lol.

The sun shone on the 23 Saabs gathered in Belfast including a strong turn-out of friends from as far as Dublin. Models ranges from a 1959 2-stroke, several 99 turbos and a strng showing of classic 900s as well as several GM900/9-3s, a couple of up 9-5s and modern 9-3s. A great day and one which we have all agreed we want to make a regular occurence! Good company and fun day.

Many thanks to everyone for taking time out to attend our little Great Western SAABS ‘We are many, we are SAAB’ gathering.
The weather was kind, the walk not too difficult and the company great (as always).

Just to add my thanks to all who attended the Great Western Saabs event at Ashton Court, Bristol – a magnificent turn-out, and in addition, my thanks, too, to members of Smart Mania, who came along in support of the event, in their variety of Smart Cars.

Thanks Alex, the photos from Bristol are excellent and a good reminder of why SAAB gatherings are always a bit special. Special thanks to Lance Cole who probably travelled the furthest and gave freely of his time and vast knowledge of all things SAAB. I as many others, now have a signed copy of this excellent book.
