For sale is a true milestone in German automotive history: an Opel Olympia Rekord Caravan from the very first model year, 1953.
With its distinctive ponton body and American-style “shark mouth” radiator grille, this model ushered in the era of the modern German Wirtschaftswunder estate car. While the sedans are still more commonly found, the three-door Caravan (estate car) from this early model year is now an absolute rarity on the market and a highlight at every classic car meet.
