It doesn't happen every day! Four generations of Opel Rekord are going under the hammer at a single auction. In addition to the Olympia Rekord from 1956, the very rare (and Swiss specialty) Rekord (P1) Ascona from 1959 and the Rekord P2 1700 from 1962, an Opel Rekord C 1900 from 1971 will also be auctioned.

And then there are three other rare Opels, namely a Kapitän P 2.6 L from 1961 (the "P" stands for the panoramic windshield), a Kadett from 1965 (in red!) and a Speedster Turbo from 2004, the Opel version of the Lotus Elise with the 2.2-liter turbo engine. Opel fans should not miss this.

Many attractive vehicles registered

In addition to the seven Opel vehicles, there is also a whole range of other rarities that could certainly cause sleepless nights for some of those interested.
