The vendor has provided the following:
1979 Opel Monza 3.0E (very rare) owned by me since 6th April 2021
I have found it to be a good running and driving car
During my ownership of the car, I have taken it to at least thirty car shows and covered over 1,700miles in it
In 2024, I took the car on a rally through the hills of North Yorkshire with the Retros of Teesside car club
The car completed the rally with no issues and proved to be fast and capable
I have also found that the car is happy to cruise at motorway speeds
The car has had a mixed history, with early MOTs showing 81,000 miles
An MOT of 2018 showed 555 miles, and it now shows 7394 miles, so that probably means the car has done 107,000 miles in total
