Saab Rally and Spares Day
North East Land, Sea And Air Museums, Sunday 18th September
This will be our third such event at the Museum which has excellent exhibits with something of interest for every age group. Among the Museums exhibits is a cold war Avro Vulcan B2 Bomber, which when it flew into Sunderland Airport became the first Vulcan to go into a private collection. This event is both a great opportunity to show off your car and to buy, sell and exchange car parts. Gates open at 9.00am and Saab owners wishing to display their cars within the museum must arrive no later than 10.30am. For those exhibiting their cars (and accompanying passengers) there will be no charge for entry.
All cars arriving after 10.30am will be required to park in the public car park and pay the daily entrance fee.
Cars parked within the museum shall be required to remain on site until 15.30pm, with the Museum closing at 16.00pm.
It is advised that you bring your own food and drink. Only guide and assistance dogs are allowed.

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.
