Monaco Blue Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 (edited) That looks lovely! The interior looks almost new! https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C1321506 Edited March 24, 2021 by Monaco Blue 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapierdave Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Interesting that it's a Manta S Berlinetta. No SR steering wheel In the UK I think that model designation was dropped by 1978, we got SR Berlinetta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something unique, low mileage, don't see many hatches with chrome bumpers. You can tell this car was cared for, photos show how to sell a car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutty2006 Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Lovely car. Those side repeaters look like later post 82? Side repeaters? No idea on value though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's some larger photos on the Danish website selling it: https://www.cc-cars.dk/UK/car.aspx?number=581342740 No rev counter etc, sunroof or alloys either. Interesting to see 'Sports Hatch' badge at the bottom of the B pillars as per the Cavalier S/H. Maybe the side repeaters were a Danish or Scandinavian requirement.

Jessopia74 Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Did not expect those side grills , it's a bit if a GM parts assault maybe specific for region? Looks tidy enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be a quirk of different market specs, but I'd say with the chrome bumpers and fake wood trim on the doorcards that is an earlier car than 1980, it's a 78/early 79 car I'd say.

plumster Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Maybe its been patched up with odds n ends from other cars, strange that there is no chrome trim at the rear, (Bottom lip of tailgate & above rear lights) or maybe they never had them on the Opel hatch. Looks sweet, but steering wheel is on the wrong side..... What the heck is that all about 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
