Saab Museum Saved

Finally, a bit of good news out of Saab; the Saab Museum in Trollhattan is no longer for sale.

The administrator of Saab's bankruptcy had put the museum and its collection of some 120 cars -- including the first Saab ever, the Ur-Saab -- up for sale. The thought process was that the cars would be worth more and thus return more money to Saab's creditors if the collection was broken up.

The City of Trollhattan, SAAB AB and the Wallenberg Foundation weren't ready to let that happen. The trio has reportedly paid 2.6 million GBP to secure the collection.
