|

Dear fellow members,
I am a new member and a true fan of the SAAB 96 which were built from 1960 to 1980. I have searched for SAAB 96s (and 95s) all over sub-Saharan Africa and so far located quite a number in South Africa and one in Zimbabwe. In Kenya where I live, I have not discovered any SAABs and their owners so far. Hence, anyone who can guide me further in the direction of SAABs in Kenya and East-Africa in general kindly get in touch.
Nb. I have many of the factory workshop repair and service manuals for the SAAB 95, 95, Sport, and tools to work on the car but not yet obtained a SAAB 96 in Nairobi (and importing a car - older than 8 years in not allowed in Kenya)
If you can possibly help, kindly get in touch

Hello and welcome.
My 1st 2 stroke came from Nairobi..it was sold through the Standard Triumph dealers in 1962. The 2nd owner was in the RAF and had it transported back to the UK.. It was used in the UK for 10 years then put into storage. It now belongs to a friend and he has the original papers including registration details.
Tough cars but i'm guessing few have lasted over the years?
Do you have any pictures of the cars you have seen in Africa? _________________ Rust Junky & oil addict. |
