Love to know what they look like in real life. They look like the Bauer models. But the decals are similar to a lot of the IMU race versions.

They are designed to run on Carrera 1:24 tracks. White Point seems to be popular on the European slot racing circuit from a casual reading.

Forgot to mention that our friends to the North have a HO slot website that has several of the Bauer Manta HO models for sale and pictures of the ones that don't have. They also have a couple of Opel Rekords for sale.

That must be the one I have then, although the paint job looks a bit on the custom side.

2008 Opel GT

Was at Hobby Lobby and, as always, looked at the car isle.
They have a 2008 yellow Opel GT. They were 30% off so I got it for $13.

Here is a picture of it. Also, at an HEB, which is a grocery store here in TX, I spotted a Speedster in the toy isle. I has the little blitz on the hood. Two Opels in one day!
