Exactly 90 years ago, Opel opened the rocket age with the RAK 2. Back then, the futuristic racing car blasted along the Avus in Berlin – to the delight of the spectators lining the track. Fast forward to 2018, and children can now enjoy their very own RAK 2. Opel recently launched the RAK 2 ride-on toy car to commemorate the historic event. The toy car may not be as fast as its predecessor, but it certainly caters for the needs of aspiring racing drivers from the age of two and they will certainly attract the envious looks of their playmates when rolling up to the playground on it. The retro RAK 2 ride-on is available for €119 (recommended retail price).
But the Opel Shop has many more new products to offer, such as the perfect companion for young racing drivers in the new Opel Teddy. When tired out from a long day on the track in their ride-on racer, the youngest Opel fans can cuddle up to their new best friend and ask mummy or daddy to take them back home. The Opel Teddy, available for €12.90, wears a knitted yellow pullover with woven car on the front.
Adult Opel fans can also enjoy the new products available in the Opel shop. To mark the launch of the new Opel Combo Life, customers can order the new Combo key fob with metal rings, real leather strap and Combo lettering (€12.90). And the new boot organiser available for €19.95 keeps everything in its rightful place, and smaller objects no longer roll around thanks to the storage possibility with fixing strap and reinforced base. The organiser can also be folded flat when not required.
Elsewhere, the company also has an answer for colder months of the year in the new warm soft-shell jacket in Opel Motorsport design. The light, black men’s jacket is available for €89.90 and comes with a soft, three-layer, water-resistant and wind-proof membrane. The functional garment is not only great for cool autumn days but is also an absolute must-have for motorsport aficionados. Staying with the stylish Opel Motorsport theme, gentlemen can also dress themselves up in the new Hoodie for €49.90.
Keen collectors of classics-to-be can treat themselves to the yellow Opel Kadett C GT/E collectors’ model in 1:43 scale (€23.90). The replica of the 1974 Kadett C will certainly raise the heartbeat of numerous Opel fans.
Apart from the latest additions to its range, the Opel Shop has numerous further highlights for women, men and children. The current range of clothing, toys and accessories can be found under www.opel-collection.com.
