Exclusive Opel Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 John Lennon, (no, not that one!) used to own that one. He was the rep for Somerset. There's a picture of it on the front cover of the June 2001 issue of the magazine when it was still white. Still has the same wheels.

cupas Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Where could I find this bodykit for sale? Or is it very difficult to find and I must made it myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midasmesh Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 One may crop up on German ebay but i would say it will be hard to find this kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opalfruits Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 I have seen pics of this car as I was interested but what the pic doesnt show is that the kit on the otherside is damaged to quite a severe extent and it needs a fair bit of welding, if you have a spare £2000 it might be repairable,its a shame cos it could be a good car.

Hi I am not 100% sure but last thing I heard from John was one of the stupidly long spacers on the rear finally gave up the ghost, the wheel came off and took some of the body with it!

The rear wheel arrangement has been sorted with a pair of big revolution split rims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
