There are several Saab fan meetings happening in the autumn. One of them, the SAAB meeting in the Bavarian Forest Germany 2012 was on 05.-07. October 2012. The Bavarian Forest is a cca 100 km long mountain chain on the border between Germany and the Czech Republic.
The exact place was around the german town Viechtach and the cca 100 fans in 55 Saabs from the years 1955 - 2010 had a great Sunday drive. German, austrian and swiss Saabs came, some of them took a pretty large distance of about 700 km. Yes, the german autobahns are fast, but not everywhere.
A longer report with pictures will come in the near future.
There is a very nice video capturing the warm atmosphere below. Smiling faces, cool Saabs. On a personal note, some things are kind of special for me. Firstly I was very close to the place of the convention recently, while coming from the IntSaab and continued through the Bavarian Forest to the other side to Czech Republic. It is a beautiful countryside and a start of my longest topless drive ever.
Secondly the black classic 900 convertible in the video. Oh man. Thirdly the Hirsch 19" rims on the yellow convertible in the video. And lastly, I think I've seen in the video the blue convertible with sand top from Alexandros, which was ready to give an interview about the practical side of it.
Enjoy the video :
Hi Alex,
ReplyDeleteyes, I was there on Saturday with my CV (9:30).
It was a wonderful event. Should it take place again some time, you have to join us!
Cheers, Alexandros.
