What we have here is a British built, two owner 1976 Panther DeVille with 10,358 miles on the odometer. This luxury automobile is finished in Blue and Beige and is complemented by a light tan leather interior and a "like new" Blue convertible top. This car is the real deal with only 11 convertibles ever made and is possibly one of only two that reside in the USA. Available by custom order only, this car was originally built for and purchased by a gentleman of Swedish decent - hence the badging. Overall, this is a very rare and spectacular automobile.
The 1976 Panther DeVille was - for many years - Britain's most expensive listed production car and was in great demand by the nouveau riche with the likes of Elton John and Oliver Reed claiming ownership. This car has a wheelbase of 142 inches (3,600 mm) and the tubular-framed De Ville uses a V12 engine from Jaguar Cars. The flowing wing lines and big headlights of the De Ville were styled to imitate the Bugatti Royale. The cockpit of the De Ville was modern, without the exterior's pretense of pre-war styling.
This Panther De Ville is equipped with Jaguar Suspension, Power Steering and Automatic Transmission, so it is an easy car to drive and quite quick, although poor aerodynamics tend to keep the top speed low (not that top speed is what you will be looking for!!!). She has a Convertible Top, AC (might need conversion and recharge), Map Light, AM/FM Cassette and more. As a matter of interest, it was a Panther De Ville that was used in Disney's 1996 live-action movie 101 Dalmatians as Cruella De Vil's car.
If you are a collector or someone who would cherish such a rare and unique car then do not let the opportunity to buy this one pass you by. This car will not last long as we have priced this vehicle to provide you the best deal on a car of this caliber. If you need any assistance with financing please let me know.
