A few years ago Neo Brothers created a bespoke Saab 96 build with a B205 engine at its heart. As much as I admired what they'd done, it lacked some design details; its rear proportions looked awkward, it was an auto gearbox and the interior just wasn’t as sharp as it could have been.

As luck would have it, the project 96 then fell in to the capable hands of Stjärnagloss as a product show car, and they've utterly transformed it in to the car it should have always been. Don't get me wrong, it's an extreme build and not one for the Saab purists, but it's now so beautifully executed with even the smallest details considered, anyone who confesses to love Saab has got to admire it.

I popped over to Bicester Heritage to be a part of the wonderfully eclectic Rollhardd event and came across this beauty. As well as the aggressive bodykit, air suspension setup and compomotive wheels, look carefully and you'll see crafted badges, gorgeous livery and the beginnings of an exceptional interior.

It was sadly about to rain so didn't get it in the best of lights, but the Stjärnagloss products were clearly doing their job well with an impeccable finish to the car. I hope I get a chance to see it in more detail again soon, but until then, really blown away by the quality of the work on this iconic Saab 96; just another reason to keep on loving the brand.
