2007 Opel Antara by Cobra Technology & Lifestyle review

Opel Antara by Cobra Technology & Lifestyle review:

Loads of chrome and a large helping of added exclusivity: That`s the motto behind Cobra Technology & Lifestyle`s exclusive accessories program for the Antara, the new SUV from Opel.

Cobra Technology & Lifestyle lends the German 4x4 an even more striking appearance with elegantly styled elements made from high-gloss stainless steel.

The renowned off-road specialist Cobra Technology & Lifestyle was the first manufacturer to offer stainless-steel front protection systems with European type approval. Naturally the engineers and technicians have developed a custom version thereof for the Opel Antara.

The Cobra Technology & Lifestyle tubular front guard with a tube diameter of 60 millimeters is mounted elastically. It passed the obligatory crash test, demonstrating that it meets the stringent EU guidelines for pedestrian protection. The accessory received its European type approval, eliminating the need for individual technical inspections and other bureaucratic measures.

As an alternative solution the front can be upgraded with the smaller stainless-steel Cobra CITYGUARD® front guard. Its high-gloss tube with a diameter of 48 millimeters is attached to the underside of the front apron.

To facilitate easier entering and exiting the vehicle, and to protect the rocker panels, the Cobra Technology & Lifestyle designers and technicians have developed custom-tailored rocker panel guards with integrated steps. The side tube guards are also made from high-gloss stainless steel with a tube diameter of 80 millimeters. They are sold in a ready-to-install set of two. Alternatively the SUV can be upgraded with Cobra Technology & Lifestyle running boards.

Sporty looks and even more driving fun can be had with the Cobra Sahara 8Jx18 light-alloy wheels with eight double spokes from Cobra Technology & Lifestyle. All Cobra Technology & Lifestyle components are manufactured in OEM quality and come with type approval. All are backed by a warranty of 24 months with unlimited miles.
