Description
This Saab Turbo was purchased by the current owner about 20 years ago. Minor renovations, such as replacing the bottom parts of the seats, were done quite promptly after bringing the car home. The ignition lock was broken at the time of purchase, so the entire lock and mechanism had to be replaced. The Saab was used quite extensively in the early years of ownership for various events and pleasure driving. In recent years, it has mostly been driven to and from inspections every other year. The owner has also taken care of the oil changes themselves. The owner says that the car is fully functional, and he has managed the servicing himself. With some love and attention, the Saab can become really nice again.
The first Saab 99 Turbo cars were converted EMS models. They were part of the 100 car test Saab conducted in 1977 before putting a turbo badge on the cars for sale. Finally, in 1978, the turbo was introduced as its own model. Initially, only the Combi-Coupe version had turbo. For the 1979 model year, it was only available as a sedan. In 1980, it underwent some minor changes. Many were exported, and several were re-imported for sale in 1981.

Facts about the model
When the 99 series debuted on November 22, 1967, at Teknorama in Stockholm, the model had a 1.7-liter engine design purchased from the English company Triumph. However, it soon became clear that it was time for a new generation of Saab engines. The engine guru Per Gillbrand had left Volvo Cars after developing their "red" engine series with the B20 at the forefront. Saab's mission was to create an even more modern machine.
The "Scania engine" was introduced halfway through the 1972 model year and became the starting point for what would later become the Turbo era. It was called the "Scania engine" because it was assembled at Saab's engine factory in Södertälje. The completely new 2.0-liter engine was powerful and also formed the basis for the sporty 99 EMS, which was also launched in 1972.
The characteristic "football" wheels were included in the EMS equipment and further enhanced the design.
