Save Our Saab Convoy Led by Erik Carlsson

Although Saab, the car manufacturer, will most likely cease to exist as an entity, Saab vehicles owners and fans will always be around. Their existence (if you doubted it until now) was confirmed on Sunday, in front of General Motors' main office in Luton, UK, where a convoy led by Saab rally legend Erik Carlsson and comprising some 150 Saab vehicles set up camp to protest against the American bully.

The gathering (which, in our opinion, has all the chances of becoming a regular event, should efforts to save Saab fail), only one of several across the world, gave a new meaning to the almost century-old saying "save our souls" (SOS) – Save Our Saab.

Luton witnessed protest convoys arriving from all over the UK, all gathering out of town at the calling of Josephine Gatsonides, niece of rally champion Maurice Gatsonides, PistonHeads reported.

From out of town, the convoy set out for the Imperial War Museum at Duxford, in honor of Saab's aerospace heritage, led by Carlsson, who postponed a knee surgery to attend the event.

"I have been lucky with Saab all my life and I hope Saab will continue to be true Saab," Carlsson told the source.

"We feel for the people in Sweden who could lose their jobs, but there are also people all over the world who want to see this brand saved for everything it stands for," Richard Elliott, chairman of the Saab Owners Club added.
