This book on the Opel Manta is full of contemporary road and comparison tests, specification and technical details, model introductions, extended use survey, owner’s survey and buying second hand articles. Covers the Opel Manta 1.6, 1.9, 2.8L Rallye, Luxus and Coupe from 1970 through to end of 1975. The Opel Manta was introduced as a result of public demand for something other than a box on wheels. Coming after the Capri, Opel Manta needed to be sure of having the right car, especially from the styling point of view. Initial reports were good, if not enthusiastic. There were several engine options and a sophisticated suspension gave good handling and road holding.
