    Just wondering is my dads old company car still around.

    It was a blue Opel Manta 1.6, reg MZW184. Think the reg date was 1980.

    Shows up on Cartell.ie so must have been taxed and on the road recently.

    Not necessarily true. Any car that shows up on Cartell means it hasn't been scrapped before 1993, but it could have been since that year. Our old '82 Escort Mk3 still shows up on it , and it was scrapped in August of that year.

    I'd love to know if it's still out there!

    Are there any Opel owners clubs?

    I recall seeing a dark blue Manta scrapped in a farmers yard in Rathangan, Co. Kildare a few years ago. It wasnt a pretty sight...engine gone and roof jumped-on:(.

    If memory serves me it had a #ZW ### reg (red rear plate). If you wish to check out if it's still there I can give you directions to the farm and/or phone number. PM me.
