Kadett is a Roadsport B Race Car and the owner of the car is selling it on this site:

I wish I would see more pics about owners girlfriend. She once drove those historic formulas but has not been present during recent years.

Maybe you could send us some of those hot ladies, and I'm pretty sure you could have plenty of 2-door D-Kadetts instead...

Yess.. there has been only lovely plumbers at pit lane this year. But I love them too.

But honestly here are not so many D-kadetts around. Most of them has gone to junk, pressed and melted to get new life as tin cans.

hehe want to swop??

yeah we got sum unique opels here in SA too... i would really like to get a 2-door shell from overseas and build that up but i suppose all the modification accesories are cheaper over there? car performance parts are really expensive here, makes it almost impossible building a nice car.

how much do 2door kadetts go for on average there?

Yes, those are in Euro's.
If you need RHD I think that you should check out cars in England. I'm pretty sure that those are even cheaper than cars here in Finland.

We have a lot of Opel Kadett E -models here in Finland, it was a popular car at the beginning of 90's. Even I have had one. It was a Kadett GSI with 20xe. That was pretty fast then, but that was the time before I got my first turbocharged car.

hehe.. you got the kadett-E with c20xe motor...

We had all kinds of kadett-E's here... first there was the 2L 8v called the "boss", then the normal c20xe 2L 16v which was called the "big boss" and it produced 115kW,

...and then we got a special limited edition unique to South Africa Kadett-E with a c20xe motor, but with a cosworth modified head and better cams, called the "superboss". it produced 125kW standard and had unique wheels and racing suspension... that was the fastest car on the road for a looong time in South Africa and won many many group N championships...

behold the legend of the superboss:

that is my dream car and i hope to own one... only 500 were ever made here and were specifically designed for group N racing.
