The Saab Museum is saved!
Just posted by Peter Bäckström on Facebook!

"The Saab Car Museum is saved!"

Saabmuseet räddat - hd.se

Saab Museum, one of Sweden's finest bilhistoriska collections, are saved. Trollhättan city won the bid together with Saab AB and the Marcus and Amalia Wallenberg Memorial Fund.

This means that the museum will remain in Trollhattan, instead of the cars scattered across the world.

The Partnership will pay 28 million for the museum, including cars, which include Ursaaben, the first in the Saab line, are included.

Great news! Great that the collection stays together and even better not moving it.
