Opel has built a special version of its Vivaro people carrier, which will be on display at the Frankfurt Motor Show next week.

It was designed and built for large families with an active lifestyle. Or simply people who like surfing, given the additional features fixed to the roof.

The interior features Opel’s latest Intellilink infotainment system, seven-inch touch-screen display and a Wi-Fi hot spot.

Power is provided by a turbocharged diesel with 103kW and 340Nm on tap.

Opel has stated that it might put it into production, but it’s highly unlikely that it will ever be introduced in SA.

It never felt like it was working hard, and after 2 400 kilometres, neither did I.
