I saw this on a walk and I couldn't remember when I'd last seen one. In lovely condition and I liked the colour.
One for my pal Keith. A Saab 96 of 1971 is seen heading out if Wakefield on Denby Dale Road after the recent annual historic vehicle gathering. The spire of Wakefield cathedral stands prominent in the background.
One thing I notice here is that the bonnet of this car appears to be ajar. That might sound a little forgetful but I have found another photo of the same car taken at a different car show a few years ago and guess what the bonnet is also slightly open. I wonder why?

I photographed this in 2015 and don't recall seeing it since, so good to know it's still on the road.
172,000 miles at the last MOT and increasing numbers of rust fails, along with fair numbers of emission fails which often accompany a low usage car.
Present owner since 2013.
The dealer sticker looks to say "Warstones" but I can't find anything anywhere, including the contemporary Saab dealer list, of that name.
Same owner since 1996!

Mojave airport, 22 January 1987.
What a surprise to find two Saab Lansens in the US. This is an A32A, the ground-attack and maritime-strike version. 287 of these were built between 1955 and 1957. Its Swedish serial number is 32120.
I wonder if N4767R ever flew in US skies. Years later the plane was brought to the north side of the airport. It's fate remains unknown to me.
The Saab 37 Viggen (Swedish for "the bolt" or "the tufted duck" is a retired Swedish single-seat, single-engine, short-medium range combat aircraft. Development work on the type was initiated at Saab in 1952 and, following the selection of a radical delta wing configuration, the resulting aircraft performed its first flight on 8 February 1967 and entered service in 21 June 1971. It was the first canard design produced in quantity.The Viggen was also the most advanced[vague] fighter jet in Europe until the introduction of the Panavia Tornado into operational service in 1981
Was it really a Saab 92 (Saab's first production model, made 1949 to 1956) who drove in front of us, or was it a 93 (the next model)? I kept the distance in great respect, and after the next bend, the car had disappeared down a forest road. All that remained was the smell of two-stroke petrol and the thought that Sixten Sason had designed a car that fit so well on the Swedish roads.
