Oliver Reed's Panther De Ville (Review)
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Max Flint looks at this rather flambouyant classic, and meets the owner of one example that has some rather interesting heritage. It's former owner was no other than the late Oliver Reed.

@@marvinthemaniac7698 Compared to a lot of others, they're not really that expensive, just really rare to see one for sale at all (they only made 60 of them). I have a book about eight years old that values them at about £40K for a good one. Even allowing for inflation, they're probably still comfortably under six figures.

@@marvinthemaniac7698 Certainly, but sometimes, rare doesn't automatically mean expensive. They are nothing like as practical as the Jaguars they are based on, and not noticeably better, just different. The demand is quite small, that's why they only made 60.
The number of comments since this was posted is indicative of the interest prevalent in that car....
Hang on a minute... he just said that it was a reliable car after stating that it had a Jaguar engine. Something is wrong here.
That's not the ultimate BL Land Crab I initially thought it would be .but I'm blown away surprised how classy it looks .I thought it would be outrageous 70s cheesy and look like a wedding hack retro kit car that's been hacked on a transit chassis .But no it looks fantastic and the colour is gorgeous.Oliver reed obviously had taste .Who would have thought it ?lovely
I’d love to own one 😍

Seen it up close, he didn’t mention the steel screen that comes up in the rear window, if required. Not sure why he needed that though.
Was his number plate NOT 10?

The original number was NOT 10, don't know why - perhaps because you were banned from driving if you had more that 9 points ?
Oliver Reed car; If that car could 'talk'. 😉

Ruined by those Maxi doors...
Impressively bad video quality. Is it 4 frames/second ?
Why is he wearing gloves and a thick anorak? Does this car have aheater?

It has a heater, electric windows and even air-con as standard...….. it drives like a limo with performance when needed.
Nobody would pay 17,000 Rubels for this car today, unless you were some of the stupid nuveau riche in Moscow or some rich son of an oil sheik in the UAE. Showing up with this at a Concours d'Elegance is a sure way to make you laughed at as both clueless and tasteless. I'm sorry but I find these vulgar 70's kit cars downright offensive to taste.

People who drve these type of cars don't give a shit what people like you think.
Like a Bugatti?, suppose if it was dark,you had sun glasses on and your sight was failing! It's like driving Donald Trump!
