OPEL ADMIRAL

De luxe saloon, de luxe cabriolet.

Closely resembling contemporary Chevrolets, with a 124ins pressed steel channel section frame with three cross-members, three-speed synchro 'box and ifs. Not, as the catalogue claimed that someone had said, 'The most beautiful car I have ever seen' but quite attractive all the same and good value at £440 for the saloon. In its homeland more expensive than a BMW 326 or Mercedes-Benz 230, so never a great seller over there.
