Description

The Saab 99 GL the  Swede with big shoulders. There's something unique about well-kept one-owner cars. The car was driven home by its happy owner in the summer of 1979. We may presume she was pleased with the car, she owned  it for about 30 years. She gave possession of her brown Saab 99 GL to Kisa Bilmuseum at the age of 81.   The museum is now downsizing its collection in the hopes that the next owner will value the car as much as the first.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Saab's 2 litre engine is standard. A straight four-cylinder engine with an overhead camshaft produced 100 horsepower in this form with a single carburetor. And a four-speed fully synchronised manual transmission. It starts and runs well. Has been on display at the museum since 2008. The most recent inspection was in 2012, however its will be delivered with a new one.  Due to downtime, a simpler service is required. The car now has a new rear exhaust system. Extra fun is that the winter wheels that come with it have possibly never been used Goodyear tyres from that era. Of course, a jack and extra wheels are supplied.

  • Interior condition:

    The interior is very nice including the  enginebay and boot.  On the c-pillar, the headliner is loose. A Philips radio is fitted. The car had an excellent home, as seen by the interior. The owner has also placed a rug in the boot to protect it from dirt.

  • Exterior condition:

    Well-kept with a straight and fine bodywork. Original paint in excellent shape, consistent with mileage and age. Professional rust prevention treatment. A stone chip  the driver's side windscreen.

  • General condition:

    The test team's favorite car. So whole, clean and nice. It is noticeable that the car has been in a dry garage all its life. In addition, nimble and stable with the 100 HP engine. Really aroused the desire to buy in all of us who tested the car. One of the collection's absolutely finest cars. protection.

Facts about the model

Saab 99 tillverkades mellan 1968 och 1984. Totalt under alla åren tillverkades 588 643 stycken 99:or. Bilen ritades av berömde designern Sixten Sason och premiärvisades den 22 november 1967, efter drygt tre års utvecklingsarbete. De första bilarna levererades till kund hösten 1968. De första åren användes en motor på 1,7 liter från den engelska biltillverkaren Triumph. En motor som fick både ris och ros, eftersom den drogs med en del barnsjukdomar. 1972 kom Saab med en ny svenskkonstruerad motor, den s k B-motorn på 2 liter. I dag syns knappt någon Saab 99 i den svenska trafiken. Utskrotningen har gått i rasande takt. De exemplar som inte lidit folkracedöden på svenska motorbanor har rostat bort, eller skickats på skroten. Ofta på grund av något enkelt struntfel. Det är först nu på senare år som veteranbilsentusiasterna fått upp ögonen för modellen.
