The 2015 National will be held at Cadwell Park in the glorious Lincolnshire Wolds from Friday 3 to Sunday 5 July, combining a Track Day on the Sunday with the usual festivities of our annual national event. It is appreciated that the date is earlier than usual, however members have been asking for an event where cars move and this is the closest date to the ‘normal’ date which we could secure.
Thanks to everyone who turned out and supported our National Rally at Wicksteed Park last weekend. It proved to be a very popular location with the biggest attendance for some time.
We counted well over 200 cars on Saturday and 150 on Sunday, plus a whole load of us camping as well.
Many thanks to all our members who turned out to support this event. What a great success with over 250 cars and 500 people!
In 2014 the historic rally team consisted of four cars ranging from 2 Strokes to classic 900, see details in the link below:-

Ebor Saab Scottish Mystery Weekend May 2019
14 Ebor Saab members set off on Friday 10 May to make their separate ways to the assembly point at Gretna Green for what was billed as a Scottish Mystery Weekend, the mystery being only the organisers knew the itinerary. The mystery began to unfold on Saturday morning with a drive along gloriously empty roads under blue skies up into rural Scotland to visit the Kagyu Samye Ling Tibetan Temple at Eskdalemuir (nobody expected a visit the foothills of the Himalayas).

North of Scotland
There is no formal Branch currently in operation (largely as a result of the sheer geographical spread of members across this area) and therefore no regular meetings.
Where possible, there is usually an SOC 'presence' at gatherings across the region organised by other clubs, motor museums or advertised on web forums (principally UKSaabs).
The dates known so far for 2020 at which we aim to be represented are:
- 26th Apr FBHVC 'Drive It Day' 2020 - various local runs (I'll be attending the one organised by the Highland Classic Motor Club, Inverness)
- 9th May Inverness Classic Vehicle Show - on the streets of Inverness with Parade finale led by pipe band
- 10th May Grampian Transport Museum, Alford, Aberdeenshire - "How Many Left" event for 'nearly classic' vehicles with fewer than 500 examples on the road
- 23rd May Rotary Club of East Sutherland Classic Car Tour, Dornoch
- 11/12th Jul 46th Scottish Transport Extravaganza, Glamis Castle, Angus (see UKSaabs forum for details)
- 9th Aug Historic Wheels Vintage Car Rally, Brodie Castle, Morayshire
- 31st Aug Fortrose & Rosemarkie Classic Vehicle Rally, Fortrose, Ross-shire.
- 6th Sept Motor Mania, Grantown on Spey.
- 19th Sept 'Wheels of Nairn', Nairn Links
