The car is in very good to excellent condition, and it has driven about 20.000 kilometres since the work was finished. The owner has enjoyed this powerful and fast Saab a lot in several historic rally events. Before and after every event the car was fully inspected and serviced, recently the car was given extensive service by a Saab Specialist.

The car is ready for any adventure in the hands of a new enthusiast owner!
