Opel Manta B - yellow

Opel Manta B - yellow

The cult star is here: Manta drivers had the licence to stand out

Manta drivers had no intention to hide. Quite the opposite. Wherever it turned up in the seventies, the sports limousine loved to show off its jazzy colours. No wonder that the sporty Opel yellow was omnipresent on the roads of Germany. WIKING is releasing the second generation of the Manta as a duo in two different colours. Produced between 1975 and 1988, the coupés performance ranged from 55 to 110 PS - or, from sedate to sporty. With this latest addition the traditional model makers are complementing the selection with a popular modern classic that had and still has many fans - not to mention a cult movie following. Sporting two horizontal cooling air openings, the body forms the harmoniously coherent Manta front that was to become the signature characteristic of this sports coupé. The glazing has been given an engraving of the interior mirror, while the bumpers have been inserted in the chassis. WIKING has designed the unmistakable rectangular headlamps as inserts and used new moulds to craft the interior with a separate steering wheel. But, WIKING did not stop there: They also included the puritanical two-spoke steering wheel, which was highly sought-after by Manta B drivers at the time.
