Saab safety – Film and Photo
It’s time for video #2 in our special “Inside Saab” series of videos. A few weeks ago we brought you a ‘live’ crash test of a Saab 9-5 SportCombi. You got to see and hear what a crash test looks like without all the slo-mo images and with full sound, which is a pretty rare insight. Last week you got

Saab 96 crash test – 1967
I found some still images of some early crash tests back in April and published them here on Inside Saab at that time. Last week, we found the film from one of these tests. It’s from August 1967, and involves a frontal impact test performed on a Saab 96 at a speed of 50 km/h. It’s enjoyable both from a

Saab Safety – Crash Test Dummies
They’re a key part of Saab’s staff. It’s only a small team and they’re the most overworked and underpaid ‘people’ in the company. They risk life and limb every time they go to work in order to protect you as best as possible. They are, of course, Saab’s crash test dummies. Some key crash test dummy facts…… The dummy family

Saabosphere – Saab links we liked this week
It’s time for our weekly round-up of Saab stories that caught our eye this week. —— Back at Easter time, I visited the Bilsport custom car show at Elmia, Jönkoping. At that particular show, I took this particular photograph….. That’s a Saab 9-3 SportCombi body fitted to the chassis of a Dodge Viper. Of course, it was just one photo

Mille Miglia photo and video update
News from the Mille Miglia has been difficult to come by as we only have a very small team in Italy for the event and they’re almost all involved in either competition or support. It doesn’t help that I’ve been flying between Australia and Sweden for the last few days. We will get a more complete story in the coming

Saabosphere – links we enjoyed this week
Let’s be honest. It’s a tough week to be writing about enjoyable links. But there are some good stories out there, so let’s take a look at them before I head off to the airport to return back to Saab HQ in Trollhattan. —— Mille Miglia is on right now and there are three Saab 93A’s entered in the event.
