This is a standard original '79 Opel Kadett City. It has an 1.2 litre 4 cilinder engine.

It's a member of the famous GM T-car like the Chevette.

Probarly the most reliable engine Opel ever made, tough little one, allmost 30 years old but it's running as if it had left the factory yesterday. Basic Interiour, everything you need to move around is in!

Bought this car from the first owner who purchased the car back in 1979! He had to sell it because he wasn't using it anymore and the shed he stored it in for 12 years was going to be demolished.

After not being used for that long the brakes were complete stuck so they had to be changed. Also it needed a little welding and some servicing but it has come back to live. I've fixed it so it was ready to be on the road again. It is a bargain to run. Low insurance and no tax!
