I saw the mantzel patrol car a few years ago and as far as I know still resides in the midlands,It still has the patrol theme going on but is now running a rover v8 lump. I personally prefered it in its Fast Cars incarnation days....in the blue paintwork with the supercharged monza engine and that's the way it should of been kept,and with that in mind and the history of the car with the mag feature would of been a very desirable sellable car,more so than mega manta perhaps.

Your mates are quick in the Ascona 400's Herman.great stuff. My fave section is at the 5 min ish stage,up until then I was feeling every bump,......lol could be most of the roads we have to put up with in the uk.

that's a bit of a space oddity there for sure,granted there is narrow 400's like hermans/but if your going to put a kit on, its got to be the full fat 400 i'm afraid. I tend to think the owner put the i240 kit on to enhance the looks of the car without hacking away the arches which you would of had to do with the 400 kit..... maybe.🤔

Seems like a very well executed 400R,//but for a few dollars more....lol I would rather have this real deal.... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vauxhall-Chevette-HS-2300-Concours-Condition-Sale-agreed/292828448263?_trkparms=aid%3D888007%26algo%3DDISC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140328180637%26meid%3D38032526c6834bce9cd451e253cd79ea%26pid%3D100009%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26sd%3D223311423154%26itm%3D292828448263&_trksid=p2047675.c100009.m1982

Doh! I must of been in dream mode there herman, I thought 28k was a classified ad price,not the starting bid for an auction.....somebody help me😑 So we could be looking at an 120k motor,any predictions anyone🤑

Very nice,looks to be an 1800 engine gsi model though🤔 Anyone who can guess the price wins it lol.😉 Yes please🤩....28k for a genuine 400 i'm on my way to buy this now🤔😭 lol hairdressers car...😆🙁

Mileage looks to be genuine going by the condition of the interior...no splits in the gearstick gaiter...still has the grain effect on steering wheel...and the Daytona check looks outstanding May be a non sunroof hard to tell in the pics...looks to only need a small amount of paint to make totally mint.....seems a very nice original genuine car..check it out on ebay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/manta-gte/232953759164?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D52945%26meid%3D4710938007334db6ab371b91fe99664e%26pid%3D100010%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D202453785548%26itm%3D232953759164&_trksid=p2047675.c100010.m2109

Going by its current condition it had a hard unloved 63k of use before being dry stored for 26 years....visually it looks like its done another 100k on top of that.....just noticed that the ecu is in the engine bay for some reason What would be a fair price to pay for this then about the £800 mark maybe

From what you can see in the pics that looks eminently savable and not a breaker,it would have to be a DIY job to make it feesible though.

if that could be had for 4k surely that would be a seriously good buy for someone.given its history,and regardless of that tiny amount of cosmetic work required The bread knive dislikes it simply because its red and has the devil sign reg lol.....bad omen......so basically if I bought it she would kill me

Great selection of opels ,...….have to say I love that manta B blue/purple six shooter,looks like a take no prisoners absolute show car...and as for the GTE kadett ...just awesome.
