Tweedehands Opel Combo Tour

Adam Opel started with sewing machines in Rüsselsheim in 1862, added bicycles, and his sons built the first Opel car in 1899. By the 1920s Opel was Germany's biggest carmaker and the first to use a moving assembly line, and General Motors bought it in 1929.

For most of a century the Kadett, Rekord, Manta and Astra were the cars German and Belgian families actually bought, honest and well-priced, with the occasional flash of brilliance like the Calibra or the Lotus Carlton. The Blitz badge became a byword for solid, sensible motoring.

Since joining PSA in 2017 and Stellantis in 2021, Opel has rediscovered its edge. The Vizor face, the Corsa, Mokka, Astra and Grandland, and an electric version of nearly everything have made the brand relevant again. German engineering, French platforms, and a design confidence Rüsselsheim had been missing for years.
