Opel vans up to 3.5 t (class N1) – collective page for the EU light-van class: from the historic Blitz through commercially registered Astra, Vectra and Omega Caravans to the Combo/Vivaro/Movano
The EU vehicle class N1 covers light commercial vehicles up to 3.5 t gross vehicle weight; this page is a collective page built from registration data (Netherlands, Finland) bundling every Opel range recorded in that class. Opel was founded in 1862 as a sewing-machine and bicycle factory in Rüsselsheim, began building cars in 1899, and belonged to General Motors from 1929 to 2017, then to PSA and today Stellantis. The register is dominated by commercially registered estate versions of the Astra, Vectra and Omega ranges ("Caravan" is Opel's name for the estate body), plus the early light truck Blitz. The actual van ranges Combo, Vivaro and Movano also belong in this class by manufacturer logic but do not appear in the visible model excerpt of the dump.

The register lists 631 versions, with recorded outputs of 44 to 130 kW, displacements of 1,024 to 3,165 cm³ across 3 to 6 cylinders, kerb weights of 846 to 3,495 kg and gross vehicle weights of 1,235 to 3,500 kg; width ranges from 1,470 to 2,390 mm, length from 3,730 to 7,300 mm.
That passenger-car estates with commercial registration dominate here reflects a common Dutch practice: estates without a rear bench are registered for tax purposes as commercial vehicles even though they are technically passenger cars.
On a used example, what matters on these Caravan versions is the condition of the often-removed rear-seat mounts and bulkhead, on the diesel engines the turbocharger and common-rail technology, and generally corrosion around the wheel arches and whether the registered payload matches the actual body. Parts are well supplied through the dense Opel network.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
