It's newer than a "C". Same body style as the Pontiac Lemans circa 89-91
BTW Anyone ever drop the turbo 2.0 liter GM engine into one of those...that would be FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was a Kadett E. It was a cabrio, which is rather rare even in Europe, not too many made. I was hoping they'd do something really cool with the car but it was typical 'pimpiness'.

How many do you want?????
They aren't rare at all over here in the netherlands, you might even buy one over here in pretty good shape for about 500 Euro's (excl transport etc) You can then even opt for a 1.6/1.8 or even a 2.0 GSI 16V

That may certainly be true for the 'C' and later models, but probably not for the 'A' and 'B' models . . . the only ones that were ever imported here - 1964-1972.

This is mine on a road in Co. Kerry. Looks like it's in a river. ![]() ![]() I saw that Pimp my Ride and I did get exited at first but I knew they'd ruin the car cause in my opinion, they ruin most of the cars. One thing I did think was cool was the translucent roof. What an idea. I'd say you'd get sick if it though. No insulation in it either. |
