OPEL COMMODORE (1972-77)

Power from 115bhp to 160bhp, the latter with fuel injection in GS/E derivatives. Smart though Germanic trim and fittings, with optional automatic and optional power steering (standard on top-level GS/Es). Fast and desirable cars by any GM standards - with top speeds ranging from 105mph to 120mph. Replaced in '78 by new Senator.
