The year is rapidly drawing to a close, and the holidays are upon us – high time to trim those trees (and those beards!). Our festive picture puzzle featured a lot of extra facial hair disguising members of the Opel family to various degrees. If you haven’t figured out who they are already, here are the solutions:

2 Jürgen Klopp
This soccer coach puts his pedal to the metal for Opel, even when he’s driving on the other side of the road: The former coach of Opel partner Borussia Dortmund has been training the English FC Liverpool club, which is sponsored by our sister brand Vauxhall, since 2015.
