Description
The museum will close in time for the auction. Until then, we recommend a visit. For more information, see https://www.saabmemorialhall.info/.
At this auction, there are several cars we haven't been able to remove from the premises. To do this, one of the walls must be demolished. This will be done at the museum's closing so buyers can collect their cars. Please note that these vehicles have been off the road for a long time, which means they may require more work to get them into shape compared to similar models that have been continuously driven.
About the Car:
This is one of the last models of Saab's beloved 95 estate. When it was acquired for the museum in 2018, it was inspected and roadworthy. We thought it would be a tough nut to crack when we tried to start it after 6 years of standing idle. With the well-known technique among older car mechanics, "a splash in the carburetor," the engine started immediately. We were actually impressed by how easily it started. We were not able to conduct a more thorough test drive. We are content to note that it has potential for the right buyer. It is particularly nice that it is in such good condition inside, allowing the next owner to focus on technical inspection and exterior appearance.
The car was last inspected in 2018 and will need a new inspection before it can be used. With its seven seats (including the driver), this is a large little car.
Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Engine: 1.5-liter V4 with a rated output of 65 hp. Four-speed steering column shifter with freewheel. The car has been stored inside the museum since 2018. Despite this, it started easily and was driven out for photography. We drove only a short distance, approximately 400 meters. During this brief drive, it performed well in both the engine and transmission, although the freewheel function was not tested. We have not tested all the car's technical features.
Note: The car is missing a starter battery. -
Interior condition
Interior: Very nice condition. We believe there may have been seat covers installed in the car previously, as otherwise, the interior would show more significant wear. The upper trim on the door panels is in poorer condition. Please refer to the pictures. Equipped with seat belts. Includes an extra seat at the back (though without seat belts).
-
Exterior condition
This vehicle appears messier than it actually is. The unflattering brown color, which has been touched up in a non-professional manner, contributes to its overall appearance. There is surface rust and minor dents around the vehicle. Upon closer inspection, our assessment is that this 95 is a solid candidate for restoration or could serve well as a practical daily driver. Please refer to the pictures.
-
General condition
Don’t let the stark color and worn appearance deceive you. In all its simplicity, it actually makes an impression. It can be used as is after a thorough check-up, or it provides a solid foundation for a complete restoration.

Auction information
General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
