• Rare manual transmission Bitter SC
• Bitter upgraded 3,905 cc inline-six engine
• Nero Carbonio 901 exterior with red interior (black-on-red specification)
• Good professional restoration carried out
• Belgian registration documents

The Bitter SC is an exclusive German grand tourer built in the 1980s by the Bitter company, founded by former racing driver Erich Bitter. The model combines elegant coupé styling with reliable Opel engineering, resulting in a comfortable and characterful GT with sporty performance.

The Bitter SC was originally delivered with a 2,969 cc inline-six engine. This particular example, however, was upgraded by Bitter with the more powerful 3,905 cc inline-six, resulting in increased performance and an even more engaging driving experience.

What makes this example particularly special is the presence of a manual gearbox, a configuration that is considerably rarer than the automatic versions in which most Bitter SC models were delivered.

This car was first registered on 20/05/1987 and was professionally restored in the past. The car presents well in the official Nero Carbonio 901 colour, combined with a red interior, creating a very stylish black-on-red configuration.

Our Oldtimerfarm inspection team has prepared an expertise report with the following findings.
