Hamburg is calling - we're going on a Saab tour north
There is a lot going on in Hamburg at the weekend. The Hanseatic city celebrates its port birthday, and Scandinavian car culture is presented at the historic large petrol station in Brandshof. Those are two reasons to take a Saab tour north. The first big exit after the winter is coming up.
The traditional meeting at the vintage gas station is one of the few Saab events that are a must for me. Because that's where the scene gathers, you meet long-time friends and maybe make new ones. Something will be different this year. Last year I drove the automobile marathon Frankfurt - Hamburg and back in the Saab 9-5 with a friend in one day, so this time I'm taking it easy.
The good old 9000, which is my everyday car anyway, is allowed on the track. This time he is not alone, because there is a spontaneous Saab tour from Frankfurt to Hamburg with several vehicles.
A small Saab 9000 pack on the way
It's a small Saab 9000 pack that wants to go long distances. Next to the Anna project is friend Lizi with his incredible midnight blue 9000 Aero (1996) there and Gérard Ratzmann with the 9000 CC Turbo 16 (Link). The two Saab 9000 generations together on the long haul, this is not only a rare sight in terms of the composition.
Because how often do you still see a 9000 on the Autobahn?
The journey today takes us from Frankfurt to the heath in front of Hamburg. The rest of the route in the direction of the Hanseatic city on Saturday is easy to manage. Sure, our Saab tour north provides some storytelling for the blog, and we enjoy the route to just drive a Swedish car again without time pressure.
The three Saabs are fully tanked and loaded, the hotel rooms booked and the route set. Let's go north!
The Hamburg Saab meeting at Brandshof (Link) starts tomorrow at 11:00 a.m., the port birthday (Link), by the way already the 834th, is present everywhere anyway. We look forward to Hamburg and the Saab scene!
I didn't even think about the appointment in Hamburg anymore. i am with master
Bredlow in Berlin to pick up my 9-3x

Special greetings to Lizi, who drew my attention to the opportunity...

This is perhaps one of the best of all possible reasons 😉
In any case, I wish you lots of fun with the new one.
Class! Despite a small accident the day before yesterday (of course NOT with a Saab 🙂 ) and despite the unfortunately stupid weather, we will go there in the convertible. I'm really looking forward to it!! 🙂 I'll be the one with the violet on my eye... ;-(
It was great that we finally met. Thanks also for the delicious souvenir and a warm virtual hug from the south! (You can't see the violet)
For my part, I was VERY happy!!! It's a pity that you had to go back soon, but there will definitely be an opportunity to chat more in the near future, maybe on a trip or similar. We then had a super nice and detailed exchange with Lizi, he will definitely report back. Thank you also for your tip about the active system adapter some time ago. It was worth its weight in gold, it's Kiel's turn now. 🙂
Have fun for you! Would love to be there, but 820 km to get there is just too big a hurdle.
Thank you!
Tom,
If I had had that on the screen, I would have asked if you would take me with you - even if it's not a 9k .-) So I'm too late and it remains to wish you a lot of fun and a good and safe journey. Greetings to your two companions and to the Waterkant
Thank you and we'll see if we repeat the tour from Frankfurt in 24! Until then, you could expand the fleet with a 9k, right?
If we had known earlier... We would definitely come along next time. Greetings from Paderborn
Dear Manuela, we have been promoting the event for months! Please always the news from the Saab scene read.
Välkomna, vi ses.
Hello Tom, an enjoyable trip north and many greetings to Götz and Detlef, two pillars of the Hamburg scene.
Welcome to the heath! 🙂
Have fun, joy and make new contacts at the meeting in HH!
