Saab Club Nederland Plans a Cross Border Noord Brabant Tour for September 20

From Gemert into Belgium and back to Reusel, the Dutch club’s late summer drive combines a scenic route, museum stop and a full day of Saab touring.

Saab Club Nederland is inviting members to spend Sunday, September 20, 2026, on the road for this year’s Noord Brabant Tour, a day trip that starts in Gemert, briefly crosses into Belgium and finishes farther west in Reusel.

Organized by the club’s Noord Brabant region, the route is designed as a relaxed touring day rather than a tightly timed rally. Cars will head south from Gemert, cross the Belgian border for part of the drive, then turn west before returning to the Netherlands for the finish in Reusel. The precise route is supplied to registered participants by the organizers.

Coffee, a museum visit and several hours behind the wheel

Arrival is scheduled between 10:00 and 10:30 a.m. Participants will start the day with coffee or tea and something to eat, followed by admission to a museum included in the entry fee.

At around 11:30 a.m., the organizers will hold a short drivers’ briefing before the Saabs set off. The main touring section runs until approximately 4:00 p.m., with drivers free to decide where and when they want to stop for lunch, coffee or a break along the route. The day concludes in Reusel with drinks and traditional Dutch snacks, with the event officially scheduled to finish around 5:00 p.m.

That flexible format should suit the variety of cars normally found at Saab Club Nederland events. The promotional photo alone brings together several generations, from earlier 900 and 9-5 models to later 9-3s, including a Cabriolet at the front of the lineup.

Registration closes September 13

The participation fee is €15 per person and covers the welcome refreshments, museum admission, route instructions and refreshments at the finish. Lunch and any additional stops during the drive are paid individually.

Registration is primarily for Saab Club Nederland members, although a family member or invited guest travelling with a member can also be included when registering. After payment, participants receive confirmation with practical information about the start and finish locations together with access to the route description.

Registration remains open until September 13 at 8:00 p.m., giving Dutch and nearby Belgian Saab owners another couple of weeks to add the Noord Brabant Tour to their September calendar.
