The Saab Sonett III Type 97 was a sports car produced by the Swedish car brand Saab from 1970 to 1974. It was the third and final version of the Saab Sonett series and was produced in a limited edition of 8,368 units. The Sonett III Type 97 was designed by Italian designer Sergio Coggiola and had a streamlined body with a distinctive wedge-shaped nose and a long, slender hood. The car was equipped with a 1.7-liter V4 engine that produced 68 horsepower. The Sonett III had a top speed of about 165 km/h and accelerated from 0 to 100 km/h in about 12 seconds. The car had a four-speed manual transmission and was equipped with disc brakes on all four wheels. The interior of the Sonett III was designed to maximize the driver's experience and featured sports seats, a low dashboard and a sports steering wheel. Due to its limited production and unique design, the Saab Sonett III Type 97 is a sought-after classic among collectors and sports car enthusiasts.
The cars on offer are part of a static collection that has been accumulated over the last 40 years. They are mainly in an unrestored, original but dusty condition. We have not tried to start any of the cars. We have been informed that the engines have been turned, on a regular basis, but the exact condition of the cars and the engines is unknown to us.
