+++ Note: I am not at all involved with the launch, was just driving through *location unknown* and spotted them. +++
+++ No photos were taken as I was driving, so don't ask +++
At a secret location, somewhere in Sydney, sit a number of truly special vehicles. They are - the Opel OPC range.
The somewhat laid back looking Insignia OPC is taking it's place proudly on the delivery truck, giving NOTHING away to the unsuspecting person.
It's baby brother the Astra OPC tries hard to hide what lurks beneath, but there's no kidding this enthusiast. Yes Astra OPC you can try and wear that fake Groucho Marx disguise, but we all know the monster that lurks within your Jekyl and Hyde personality.
Finally with it's "sheepish grin" grille is the baby of the range. The Corsa OPC. It looks like a downright cheeky car, and you almost smirk knowing the fun you'll have with it, once inside the cabin.
....
That's right, today is the day Opel OPC range must be officially launching in Australia.
Don't ask for details, don't ask for locations, I won't tell.
Just rest assured that three stunning looking new Opels are in Australia, ready to raise eyebrows.
I'd say expect to see media reviews coming soon, as I dare say the 3 I saw will be promo vehicles headed to motoring journos.
One thing is for certain... in real life the new Astra OPC is a STUNNING looking car. For those with the cash, I can see many sleepless nights now trying to decide between the new Megane RS (which I also think is a stunning looking car), and the Astra OPC. So I'd encourage you all to grab a pen and paper and start writing down excuses you'll need to assure the "Minister of Finance" in our lives, that we NEED an Astra OPC in our garages :)
Stay tuned Opel enthusiasts.... The OPCs are here :)
