About this car
This 1979 Opel Manta 2.0 SR Berlinetta is one of just 200 cars built to Silver 2 special edition specification, a limited run that marks it out from the many Mantas of the period. It is finished in Astro Silver with the correct blue velour interior.
The 2.0-litre CIH engine is paired with a five-speed manual gearbox, fitted as a conversion to make the car easier to live with on modern roads. Period ATS alloy wheels, the factory steel sunroof and the vinyl roof are all retained, and the page describes each as in very good condition.
The odometer reads 83,980 miles, and the car has had ten previous owners. It comes with its original bill of sale and a substantial history file of invoices and paperwork, both older and more recent.
