Six or seven companies interested in the Saab car factory

Yesterday I`ve written that the administrators want to make the decision about the Saab car factory before the end of this month (february). What I did not know at that moment was that there are 6 or 7 companies interested in the Saab car factory! That Saab `ll be saved seems not to be the question anymore!

These 6 or 7 companies are all interested in acquiring the entire Saab company (except the Museum and Saab parts of course). There are rumors that BMW is the European company interested in Saab. They had contacts before with Saab in 2010 (engine deal), let us hope this rumor is true. I personally do not have a good feeling about Fiat to own Saab. Look to what they did with Lancia. BMW has a lot of success with Mini, with Saab they can do the trick again.

The above picture is from my "Spykersaab" convertible (I do not like text without pictures). Do you have a nice picture of your Saab? Feel free to post at our Facebook page and I`ll use it on this blog!

First donation Saab Museum received in Trollhättan

A German Saab enthusiast from Darmstadt has sent 500 crowns to the new owners of the Saab museum after he understood the museum is saved. This nice guy has the phrase "Made in Trollhättan by Trolls" on his Saab just like I have on my 95. Of course a lot more people are willing to donate to the museum, this can be a good way to get extra funding for the museum because it`s rather costly to run (it is estimated at 3 million dollars per year).

According to Jonathan Sulo (a Saab driver too) it is costly too in Sweden to manage cash donations like the German Saab enthusiast did. Better wait for an official donation solution he wrote this afternoon. This sounds reasonable, let`s wait until the new owners decide to open up donations from the public. It is a great idea to ensure future success of the Saab Museum in Trollhättan.
