- Electronic power steering
- Aquamarine-blue metallic
- Original NL-car
- Nicely documented with extensive article by Carros

Production of the Saab 96 ran from 1960 to 1980. With a production number of more than half a million, it's safe to say it was a popular car at the time. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Saab's import into the Netherlands, the Saab 96 'Limited Edition' was released. Only 150 of these were available. Each one was numbered with a gold plaque mounted on the dashboard. The relevant number here reads '117'. The scarce supply makes too highly desirable for collectors and enthusiasts.

The body colour of this special edition Saab 96 involves a neat "Aquamarine-blue metallic" opposite a cognac brown coloured interior. It is equipped with the 15-inch "soccer ball" or football rims. Apart from this, there are more interesting options and features such as;
- Front spoiler
- Rear spoiler
- Mudflaps
- Sports steering wheel with red accents
- Front (grille) and rear fog lamps
- Rear window heating
- Desired square headlights with wipers

It is a 2-door model, but there is still a comfortable rear seat in the back. Up front on the dashboard, there are no less than 8 instruments. These include:
- Voltmeter
- Oil temperature
- Coolant temperature
- Speedometer
- Tachometer (on the steering wheel)
- Saab analogue clock
- Ambient air temperature

What lies under the bonnet has already been given away a little in the title. A 1.5L V4. This engine block comes from a Ford and produces around 68HP. The engine block is mated to a 4-speed manual transmission. The Saab's age is not reflected during the driving experience, which is in fact smooth and comfortable. This applies to both gear shifting and the functioning of the engine block. It is also equipped with electronic power steering.

Currently, the 44-year-old car is owned by its 6th owner. The previous owners have taken good care of the car and this is reflected in its current condition. Several documents are present such as;
- Article of the car in question
- Manuals
- Tests
- Invoices

A very unique Swedish car with a classic rally feel!
