Saab 99 EMS #1 P. Eklund / B. Cederberg Rally Sweden 1977 MCG 1:18
Saab 99 EMS #1 P. Eklund / B. Cederberg Rally Sweden 1977 MCG 1:18
1/6
MCG's 1:18 diecast Saab 99 EMS reproduces Per Eklund and Bengt Cederberg's #1 entry at Rally Sweden 1977, from the era when Saab ran a genuine factory rally programme. Diecast build with rally-spec details including auxiliary lamps, mud flaps and period sponsor graphics gives this a specific, event-correct look rather than a generic rally livery.

Saab 99 EMS #1 P. Eklund / B. Cederberg Rally Sweden 1977 MCG 1:18
About the Saab 99 EMS #1 P. Eklund / B. Cederberg Rally Sweden 1977 MCG 1:18
TL;DR: MCG's 1:18 diecast recreates Per Eklund and Bengt Cederberg's #1 Saab 99 EMS from Rally Sweden 1977, the era of Saab's genuine factory rally effort. Auxiliary lamps, mud flaps and period sponsor graphics are reproduced in diecast, giving collectors an event-specific rally car rather than a generic livery.
Rally Sweden in the 1970s was Saab's home event, run on the snow and ice the 99 EMS was built to handle, and this diecast marks a specific entry from that golden run rather than a generic rally livery.
MCG's Diecast Build of a Works Rally Saab
The Saab 99 EMS carried a raised stance and extended wheel arches for rally use, and MCG's 1:18 diecast reproduces that stance along with the auxiliary lamp pods mounted ahead of the grille, a signature look of period Scandinavian rally cars run in snow and darkness. The bodywork carries mud flaps behind each wheel and the sponsor graphics that dressed works Saabs through the mid-1970s, printed rather than left as decals that could misalign on a lesser diecast. At this scale the diecast body gives real weight in the hand, and opening doors and a bonnet reveal a cabin trimmed for rally use, with a stripped-back dashboard and a roll cage visible through the door aperture. Wheels sit on period-correct rally rubber, and ride height is set higher than a street 99, matching the car's actual rally set-up.
Per Eklund and Saab's Works Rally Programme
Per Eklund was one of Saab's genuine works drivers through the 1970s, and Rally Sweden was the marque's home round, run in conditions the 99 EMS was purpose-built to handle. Saab's factory rally effort ran the 99 EMS with real success on snow and ice rallies across Scandinavia, and Rally Sweden 1977 sits inside that period. Running car #1 with co-driver Bengt Cederberg placed Eklund among the entries the factory rated highly enough to carry a low start number, itself a signal of a team's confidence in a crew. For collectors building a WRC-classic display, an entry-specific livery carries more weight than a generic period rally colour scheme, since it ties the model to a documented event rather than an imagined one.
A Focused Piece for a Rally-Era Collection
This 99 EMS suits a display built around 1970s Scandinavian rallying or Saab's works history specifically, where its raised stance and auxiliary lamps read clearly against road-going companions. Paired with its Rally Sweden 1977 sister car carrying car #4, the two entries let a collector tell a fuller story of that single event rather than a single isolated livery.
