The Opel Rekord Olympia of 1956 is a rare sight today, particularly in its Cabrio Limousine form. Originally delivered in France, this car was brought to Germany over 30 years ago, where it underwent a restoration. Since then, it has been carefully maintained and is described as being in good condition. The model was known in the 1950s for offering comfort and practicality in a stylish package, bridging the post-war need for reliability with a touch of elegance. This example remains both roadworthy and dependable, making it a charming piece of German automotive history with a truly international past.

Please note that it is not uncommon for classic or collectible vehicles to have received cosmetic repairs in the past, to rectify damage or refresh appearance, and this work may be hard to see even upon visual inspection.
