Etienne, our Saab History European correspondent, has recently provided photos of a Saab event in Belgium.

This particular Saab event was called ING Aredenne which was actually a road rally. Thanks to Etienne, we have some great photos as well as a nice translation of the e-mail he received as well.

Apparently, this event was co-sponsored by Saab’s importer in Belgium? When was the last time Saab Automobile USA co-sponsored a rally in the United States? I think that was in 1957 with the Great American Mountain Rally, right? It is long overdue! Let’s hope the new start with Saab in the United States with new ownership, we see this again.

Thank you Etienne for the photos and information!

I receive the mail below this morning from Sofie Van Damme the public relation of belgian saab importer about the ING rally , as you can see on
the original mail in french it’s for saabhuy and for you too
