1979 Saab 900 GLS - 14,000 miles from new For Sale
In 1978, the 900 was Saab’s most important model for a generation. Svelte yet capacious, famously aerodynamic and uniquely engineered, this compact luxury coupe established Saab world-wide as a maker of innovative yet highly robust motorcars. Impact absorbing bumpers, longitudinal engine and transaxle providing weight over the driven front wheels for supreme traction (like Issigonis’ Mini), but with double wishbone suspension and equal-length driveshafts to eliminate torque-steer (unlike the Mini), dashboard ergonomics inspired by aircraft cockpits, cabin air filter, plastic fuel tank mounted inboard of the rear axle…. the list of technical accomplishments and modern safety standards goes on.
This 900 GLS, with a 1, 985cc twin carburettor engine and four speed manual gear box, was specified in Moss Green with complimenting pale green velour trim and power steering by Mr Dennis Oates of Keithley, Yorkshire in June 1979. He remained the registered keeper until November 2016, whereupon records suggest the car had covered no more than 6, 000 miles. One more registered keeper, and time with Bocking Garage and The Spinning Wheel, then brought it to its current owner; a chartered mechanical engineer who has patiently recommissioned the car fit for the daily use for which it was intended.
The car is now offered for sale, recently serviced, with new tyres, rear seat belts and a fresh MOT, and must be unique in this condition; a must for any serious Saab enthusiast or collector, and a strong investment.
Mileage increasing as the car is in daily use!
