Saab car transporter.

Apologies if this has been covered as I assume it’s well known in Saab circles.

However … I’ve been in hull working and whilst driving around we passed a house that looked like a normal, but had a number of algal saabs including what looked like a car transporter with, instead of a van cab the front end of a Saab 9-5 which seemed to have Tvr stickers on it.

Does anyone have any info on this? Sounds like it could be an interesting back story.

Find it on Google maps if you can.

I’ve no idea where I was other than “Hull”

there has been a few of these - NG9-5 and 9000's being the most common but i seem to recall seeing verisons based on the NG9-3.

undoubtedlyalso some home brewed versions alongside the specialist conversions

It looked very interesting.

i believe these guys may have been the "original" in addition to their other 6 wheeled conversions (although there may well have been private one-offs before this company entered the market).

Looks like they've diverted into other marques and kit sales as well as the engineering services.

I have also seen it Its UK registered and I am sure that it will turn up for sale somewhere
