SAAB 900 TURBO

3-door/4-door/5-door saloon/hatchback.

Quite simply, the 99 Turbo engine/transmission power pack in the longer/longer-wheelbase 900 family of body shells - product planning at its best. A cult car in some areas until supplanted by 16-valve versions (not sold in the seventies), still very popular, fast, reassuring and civilised. No five-speed transmission before 1980, and no automatic option either.
