Highlights: – 1500 cc V4 engine, petrol, manual transmission – Classic Saab 95 estate in light blue with blue interior – One family owner from new, passed from father to son – With the current owner since 1999 and never registered in another name – Described by the seller as in original condition, with a partial repaint after vandalism damage The private seller offers for sale this 1978 Saab 95 V4, powered by a 1500 cc V4 petrol engine, paired with a manual transmission. The Saab 95 is the practical estate sibling of the quirky Saab 96, a car that built its reputation in Scandinavia on cleverly packaged space, front-wheel drive and a solid, aircraft-inspired approach to engineering. With its upright tailgate, large glass area and two-door body, it was as useful as a family workhorse as it was distinctive on the road, and the Ford-derived V4 engine gave it a more relaxed character than the earlier two-stroke cars. This example is finished in a cheerful light blue with a matching blue interior, and the photos show a tidy cabin with its original dashboard, instruments and period radio. According to the seller, the car has been in the same family since new, passing from father to son, and it has been in the current owner’s possession since 1999 without ever being registered in another name. The seller describes the car as being in original condition, apart from a partial repaint carried out after vandalism damage. The seller reports that the car drives, shifts and brakes well. Family-owned estates of this type are increasingly sought after by Saab enthusiasts and collectors who appreciate their honest, functional design and distinctive Swedish charm. For anyone looking for a different kind of classic, this 95 offers plenty of space, a long ownership story and the unmistakable look of the Saab 95. Condition of the bodywork & paint 4 — Very Good.
