Didn’t realize engines were longitudinal in these.

Holdover from the Eagle (Renault) Premier, from which the LH platform was derived.

Sold for $16k. Doesn't sound unreasonable given the work in it.

Yes, I agree. They are on the road since September, based on one of their post page 5
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=723737&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=80

picture below is from page 6

Q. "I’m guessing you’ve passed through Ontario already. How did the electric motor do on all the hills from Sault Ste Marie to Thunder Bay?"

A. "Yes. Below one of the last stop in Ontario, kenora. A free charge  Very Happy
Motor was perfect. With cruise control set between 85 and 95 km/h the motor never needed more than 100 kw over his 150 kw available to maintain speed up hill.
Cruising with electric vehicle in those hills was awesome as the van can always perfectly maintain his speed with regen (recharge the battery) going dowhill
. "

Hey Chaos - want the last SAAB ever built?

https://bilwebauctions.se/en/finalauktion-2019/saab-9-3-aero-turbo4-1933
It is a piece of history, but no. I would want a TurboX Wagon with a stick, a Viggen, or a 99 Turbo if I was to go back to Saab.
If driving an Alfa does not restore vitality to your soul, then just pass the hospital and park at the morgue to save everyone time.

Now drives a Jaaaaaaag...and thus will not pay for anything during an outing...but it is OK, because....I drive a Jaaaaaag.
