SAABtec

SAAB cars have always been innovative and continue to be so. For many years now SAAB have been positioned in the upper middle class premium brand market.

Current models are the 9-3 Sport and 9-5 Saloon and Estate variants. Previous models are excellent second hand buys, for example the 9000 range produced from 1985 to 1997. All SAAB cars have been designed for performance, driver enjoyment, comfort, safety, and durability.

The SAAB brand has always been understated and many people still know little about SAAB, however we find that brand loyalty among the many SAAB drivers is way above the norm. People that drive SAABs tend to stay with SAAB indefinitely, and these people are probably responsible for converting friends, neigbours, relatives etc. Since GM acquired SAAB the brand will continue to be in the premium sector, and will be better exposed than in the past due to improved advertising and dealer networks, which has in the past caused SAAB to be underexposed in the market place.

There is a thriving SAAB owners club of Great Britain, which has members who drive all models from SAAB 2-strokes to the latest models. There are many benefits to members, such as technical support, discounted insurance, and social activities.
