There were two generations of the model, the Manta A and the Manta B, both of which were based on the Opel Ascona saloon platform. The Manta was a competitor to the Ford Capri and was also offered as an estate coupé with the name suffix CC.

It has large black patches all over its body on a grey, white or light pink background. It is a fertile, frugal and stress-resistant breed that has good feeding characteristics. The meat of the coloured Bentheim Landschwein is very juicy and tasty, as it has a high fat and bacon content.
