Not the end of SAAB, but a story I had not heard before about the Sonett III - in 1973 SAAB USA wanted a successor but Trollhatten were unenthusiatic, so SAAB USA commissioned Reliant to draw up proposals for a Sonett IV and building it in UK. Ogle did the styling and came up with a coupe with opening big glass rear window - a book drawing shows something looking like a Ford Pinto Runabout/Capri Mk.II hybrid. But 1974 oil crisis killed it.
