| Pioneering spirit | |
 "The pessimists are often right in the end, but it's the optimists who make things happen in the meantime".  |
"Thinking ahead" was one of the mottos of the young and successful rally driver Günther Irmscher. In 1968, the master motor mechanic and engineer set up a small business in a double garage in the Swabian town of Winnenden. Thanks to the pioneering spirit and tireless dedication of Günther Irmscher, the original two-man engine tuning outfit developed into a flourishing group of companies. Nowadays, the name Irmscher is a synonym for sporty, fast and successful Opel vehicles. |
