Opel Rekord P2

The Opel Rekord P2 is a large family car that was introduced in the summer of 1960, by Opel as a replacement for the Opel Rekord P1. It shared its 2,541 mm wheelbase with its predecessor, but was nonetheless a little longer and wider. The wrap-around windscreen which had been a defining element of the Rekord P1, and which had given rise to the P for Panorama designation, was now gone, but the P designation remained and the driver's view out, assisted by relatively thin A-pillars, remained good. A departure with the P2 was a volume produced coupe version.
