History
The Enduro was a special version of the 1980 Saab 900 Turbo, commissioned by Saab Australia for the local market only. The package added boxed guards, upgraded instruments, uprated suspension and larger wheels.
The wastegate was set to a high boost, which made the standard water injection necessary.
