Displacement About Irmscher
Irmscher is a German automobile tuning company specialising in Opel (and Vauxhall, both belonging to General Motors) cars. It was founded in 1968 in a double garage in the Swabian town of Winnenden near Waiblingen in Rems-Murr-Kreis by rallying driver and motor mechanic Günther Irmscher.
Irmscher has retained close links to the Opel company by operating the works teams for Opel in many European automobile competitions, including the Omega raced in the V8Stars competition in Germany. However, in the UK the Vauxhall teams are run by Triple 8.
This has led them to create parts for Daewoo and Chevrolet models, and wheels for the GM based SAAB models, although these are much rarer than the Opel and Vauxhall parts. Their distinctive customised parts include alloy wheels, bodykits and exhausts as well as various interior fittings.
