One of those cars being the ever so fun Opel Adam, a car that has been a big hit for Opel South Africa. The slick and hip city car which is unique to the driver. The Adam has done fantastically well in a short period, selling over 1200 cars in South\u00a0Africa. Everyone likes their cars to be personable to them, and Opel hit the nail\u00a0on the head in that respect. The Adam can be customised in so many different\u00a0ways that it\u2019s possible not to find another Adam like yours on the road.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2591\" src=\"http:\/\/themotoristold.co.za.dedi211.jnb3.host-h.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/adam-rocks-50_880x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"749\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themotoristold.co.za\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/adam-rocks-50_880x500.jpg 749w, https:\/\/www.themotoristold.co.za\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/adam-rocks-50_880x500-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 749px) 100vw, 749px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So we have the Adam, Adam Jam and Adam Glam but now it\u2019s time for these\u00a0current cool cats to welcome their new sibling to the world, The Adam Rocks. The car does rock, and it boasts the same three-cylinder turbo engine\u00a0found in the Jam and Glam which is perfect for city driving. It\u2019s also packed full of\u00a0useful features such as Blind Spot Assist, Advanced Park Assist 2, auto-wipers and City steering.\u00a0What separates the Adam rocks from its brothers and sisters, is very much\u00a0a difference in its visual appearance. For starters, the vehicle has been raised by 15mm, and there is added exterior cladding to the wheel arches, fenders and bumpers. This immediately\u00a0gives the Rocks a more bold, tough, off-road crossover look, which I think is great.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another standout feature of the Adam Rocks is its canvas roof which opens up with the\u00a0touch of a button, giving you that airy feeling. This is one very cool car; it has got the whole &#8220;image is everything&#8221; look just right.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After driving the Rocks, you realise that nothing has changed regarding the ride quality. You still get the feeling that this is a very well built car, small and nimble for city streets but with enough oomph for highways and longer drives.\u00a0The 7-inch Intelli-Link system is simple but smart; you can even set the rear wiper to\u00a0flick once when you select reverse gear.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2592\" src=\"http:\/\/themotoristold.co.za.dedi211.jnb3.host-h.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/adam-rocks-68_880x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"749\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themotoristold.co.za\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/adam-rocks-68_880x500.jpg 749w, https:\/\/www.themotoristold.co.za\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/adam-rocks-68_880x500-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 749px) 100vw, 749px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Adam Rocks start at R270 000. We know, it\u2019s not cheap, but you\u2019re not buying something cheap when you buy any Opel Adam. You\u2019re buying a stylish, unique, German\u00a0engineered vehicle packed full of features and fun. If the Adam Rocks is out of your price\u00a0range, don\u2019t fret too much, you can check out the other Adams in the range with prices \u00a0starting at R190,000. If the small 1.0-litre engine is too soft for you and you\u2019re looking for the Adam style but with a bit more performance, don\u2019t worry the Adam S is just around the corner with Opel South Africa launching it soon. Stay tuned.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2594\" src=\"http:\/\/themotoristold.co.za.dedi211.jnb3.host-h.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Opel-Adam-S-18.06.151-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themotoristold.co.za\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Opel-Adam-S-18.06.151-1024x682.jpg 751w, https:\/\/www.themotoristold.co.za\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Opel-Adam-S-18.06.151-1024x682-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.themotoristold.co.za\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Opel-Adam-S-18.06.151-1024x682-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.themotoristold.co.za\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Opel-Adam-S-18.06.151-1024x682-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Opel South Africa&#8217;s new Adam Rocks Since Opel\u2019s transformation, they have released some great and innovative cars.
