 Cheers for the comment. I didn't really go looking for one of these. It just turned quite locally and you can't say no to something like this.

These are becoming popular in Germany for bagging and then fitting tiny but very wide alloys.

That's a superb example. A mate's Dad had one of these when it was new. It was a gold CD Berlina automatic with bronze tinted glass, an electric sunroof and ... electric windows in the back!! I can still remember the temptation to play with the window switches whenever I went in it! This is gonna look the business if you really go to town with the cleaning. Apart from the rear bumper I can't see any other thing else that needs attention cosmetically? Could really do with a passenger side door mirror though. Opel always seemed to only put a drivers mirror on as standard, looks unbalanced IMO. Get cleaning and put some new pics up ASAP please! Good luck with it mate. |

Passenger door mirror is a must! It is is very disturbing not being able to see on that side. As for the bumper thats the strange thing. When I look at it very closely there is no signs of damage. Optical illusion maybe?

Yeah maybe it's just an optical illusion then, I thought the black bumper trim on the passenger side rear quarter looked to be screwed on?

The condition of this is astonishing - the slightly twisted rear bumper really is the only thing wrong with it. I'll bet most 1982 Rekords were worse than this by '86/'87!
