The Appeal

The Opel Commodore GS Coupé is one of the more charismatic sporting grand tourers to emerge from Rüsselsheim in the early 1970s. Combining the elegant pillarless coupé body with a punchy 2.8-litre six-cylinder engine producing 145 hp, the GS specification offered a compelling blend of performance and refinement. Surviving examples in coupé form are increasingly scarce across Europe.

This 1971 example has been stationary for approximately five years and requires recommissioning. The vendor notes the engine starts, but the mechanicals, electrics, and interior all need attention. The dashboard wood trim is intact but requires restoration, and the interior, while in a preserved state, would benefit from refurbishment. For those seeking a rare Commodore GS Coupé as a recommissioning project with solid bodywork already in hand, this French-registered example is well worth a closer look.
