Saab – All the cars. The perfect reading for long autumn evenings.
Now when autumn is closing in we want to come with a suggestion how to bring some light in the darkness. And one of the best ways to do that, is to cuddle up in your favourite part of the couch with Per-Börje Elgs book about all Saabs. Per-Börje was for many years employed at Saab Car Division in the marketing and public relations departments. Per-Börje’s knowledge of Saab is genuine and well-founded. If you havn’t already got it, you could get it easily thru a few clicks on the keyboard, from The Saab Car Museum Webbshop. Happy reading!
