Rare manual transmission Bitter SC with a Bitter upgraded 3,848 cc inline-six engine. The exterior is Nero Carbonio 901 with a red interior, featuring a black-on-red specification. The car has undergone a good professional restoration and comes with Belgian registration documents.

A walkaround video is available. An additional set of four winter wheels with steel rims and winter tyres is supplied with the car.

The Bitter SC is an exclusive German grand tourer built in the 1980s by Bitter, founded by former racing driver Erich Bitter. It combines elegant coupe styling with reliable Opel engineering, offering a comfortable and characterful GT with sporty performance. This particular example is notable for its rare manual gearbox, as most Bitter SC models were delivered with automatic transmissions.

First registered on 20/05/1987, the car has been professionally restored. It presents well in its original Nero Carbonio 901 colour, complemented by a red interior for a stylish black-on-red look.
