evo3000 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 (edited) He's taking no prisoner's with that asking price http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Opel-Manta-A-DOT-Turbo-1974-75-UK-Market-Sales-Brochure/182005538474?_trksid=p2045573.c100033.m2042&_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D35951%26meid%3Dc7a252086a644c45b7a65c020e694c65%26pid%3D100033%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D182005538474 Edited March 26, 2016 by evo3000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vauxhallkeith Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Bit off a crazy asking price eh. Guy is mental. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiney_norman Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Not really. Everyone knows how rare the cars are, if you're someone like Manfred in Germany with a Broadspeed that you've spent insane money on, this might just be the perfect finishing touch to leave in the windscreen at shows. If you can afford a Broadspeed this is peanuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1900SR Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I'll bet the brochure is nowhere near as rare as the cars though, and I wouldn't be surprised if they do fetch silly money if someone isn't reprinting them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evo3000 Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 I've never seen a broadspeed for sale tbh,must admit its one of my fave A's along with the TE 2800. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mantaray Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I think I still have that brochure somewhere, Back in the mists of time, I once had the chance to buy a Broadspeet A Series, but turned it down ,as I knew that i would be too tempted to modify it. And it would just have been wronge to modify such a rear car. Also back in the 90s, I saw one in bits at the back of a workshop in the Manchester area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should dig out that brochure chris given the potential value of them. Was'nt there someone in the club that owned two of these.by that I mean the actual cars.

paulmanta Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) Really ! I have at least half a dozen of these brochures ! Had more but gave a few away to mates in the club. Also got a lad of new unopened handbook packs. Edited March 28, 2016 by paulmanta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I need one i'll buy it off Paul, I reckon he 'll do me a better price than £57 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
