Please let any one know who has enjoyed Dad’s company and charm over the years , because it is truly an open house / farm!

The only stipulation is please wear smart cheerful / bright clothes and (sorry boys) if the men are wearing shirts , please, please wear a TIE!!( One of Dad’s few bug bears- he was NOT impressed with Simon Cowells attire!). 

We look forward to hearing many stories please, it is a time for my daughter’s Christina and Zara to hear and see the other side of their Grand-Dad, the “True Raconteur!”

For over 15 years, Goran Aničić has been passionately focused on Saab automobiles and everything related to them. His initial encounter with Saab cars took place back in 2003 when the first Saab 9-3 and sedan version were introduced. At that moment, he was captivated by the car's Scandinavian design logic and top-notch engineering, and everything that followed stemmed from that first encounter. Later on, through his work at the editorial team of the Serbian automotive magazines "Autostart" and later "AutoBild," he had the opportunity to engage more closely with Saab vehicles. In 2008, he tested the latest Saab cars of that time, such as the Saab 9-3 TTiD Aero and Saab 9-3 Turbo X. In 2010, as the sole blogger from the region, he participated in the Saab 9-5ng presentation in Trollhättan, Sweden. Alongside journalists from around the world, he got a firsthand experience of the pinnacle of technological offerings from Saab at that time. Currently, Goran owns two Saabs: a 2008 Saab 9-3 Vector Sportcombi with a manual transmission, and a Saab 9-3 Aero Griffin Sport Sedan from the last generation, which rolled off the production line in Trollhättan in December 2011.
