1979 Opel Manta SR Coupe PETROL Manual
Special Edition Silver 2
£19,950.00 Make Opel Model Manta Year 1979 Transmission Manual Fuel Petrol Engine Size 1,979 ccm Mileage 83,980 Miles Emission class First registered in 1979, this Opel Manta 2.0 SR Berlinetta is a particularly rare example, being one of just 200 examples produced in the desirable Silver 2 special edition specification. Finished in Astro Silver, the car perfectly captures the sharp, understated sporting style that made the Manta such a success for Opel during the late 1970s.Power comes from the well-regarded 2.0-litre CIH engine, paired with a five-speed manual gearbox conversion, offering a more relaxed driving experience and improved usability on modern roads. The CIH unit is widely respected for its durability and smooth delivery, providing the Manta with strong, usable performance that suits the car’s sporting character.The exterior presents very well, with clean body lines and excellent overall presence. Period ATS alloy wheels sit neatly within the arches and complement the Silver 2 specification perfectly. The car also retains its factory fitted steel sunroof along with the correct vinyl roof, both of which remain in very good condition and further enhance the distinctive late-1970s appearance.Inside, the cabin is finished in the correct and highly attractive blue velour trim, a signature feature of the Berlinetta specification. The seats, door cards and interior trim all present very well and provide a striking contrast against the Astro Silver exterior, giving the car a wonderfully period feel throughout the cabin.This Manta is supplied with its original bill of sale along with a substantial history file of invoices and paperwork, both historic and more recent, documenting the car’s maintenance and care over the years.Showing approximately 83,000 miles, this rare Opel Manta 2.0 SR Berlinetta Silver 2 represents an increasingly collectible example of Opel’s iconic sporting coupé. With its limited production numbers, desirable specification and strong presentation throughout, it offers an appealing opportunity for enthusiasts seeking a usable and characterful classic.Book a viewing today - our coffee pot is always hot!.CLASSICWISE LTD
