Welcome
to The SAAB Owners Club (GB)
Everyone is welcome, no matter the age or
model of SAAB.
In the beginning
In 1960, SAAB cars became available officially
in the UK, and it was not long before owners were gathering together
to share their enthusiasm for the marque. This enthusiasm was
without doubt fuelled by the outstanding performances by the
Two-strokes
in the major rallies of this period. This early group of enthusiasts
grew in number and it was on 17th May 1963, at the Cheshire
Cheese Wine Cellar in London's Fleet Street, that the SAAB Owners
Club was officially formed, with an initial membership of 60.
Since then the Club has grown to around 4500 members, and is
the
largest and most comprehensive UK club for all Saab enthusiasts.
Many of the early members are still in the club today.
Now
The club caters for a broad spectrum of enthusiasts
and to define the "typical" member is well nigh impossible.
The cars owned by Club members range from the very earliest 92
Two-strokes to the very latest 9-5 and 9-3 models, with all models
in between. Members come from all parts of the UK, and Europe.
There are also members located around the world who enjoy the
benefits of the Club. The common bond is the same in all cases:
an abiding enthusiasm for all things SAAB. Throughout the year
events are organised, at National and Local level. The highlight
is the SOC National Rally - a weekend event for all the family.
Regular meetings are held at local branches covering the whole
of the UK, giving all members the opportunity to meet and enjoy
the unique atmosphere of the club on a regular basis.
