Το ζιγκ-ζάγκ πράγματι σηματοδοτεί ότι πλησιάζεις σε διάβαση πεζών. Το άλλο πράγμα που βλέπουμε είναι η διαμήκης διακεκκομένη γραμμή που σχηματίζει χωνί (και έχει γέμιση με διαγώνιες παράλληλες γραμμές) προς τη νησίδα. Επίσης παρατηρούμε αριστερά τα 2 βανάκια και το φορτηγό που έχουν παρκάρει θρασύτατα πάνω στον πεζόδρομο. :lol:

The Panther 6 was a British six-wheel convertible produced by Panther in 1977. The car is powered by a mid-mounted 8.2 L (500 cu in) Cadillac V8 engine with twin turbochargers paired to a three-speed automatic transmission.[1] Only two cars were made (one in white, one in black), both of which are known to still exist. One is in Saudi Arabia, and the other was shown at the 2008 NEC Classic Car Show by the Panther Car Club and at the 2015 Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este by Albert Fellner.

The six-wheel configuration was inspired by the Tyrrell P34 racing car.[1] The layout consists of one pair of larger rear wheels with Pirelli 265/50VR16 tyres, and two pairs of smaller steerable front wheels with Pirelli 205/40VR13 tyres. This concept of the Panther Six was considered an early masterpiece[by whom?] of a true supercar.[citation needed]

The specification included a detachable hard top and convertible soft top, electronic instruments, air conditioning, an automatic fire extinguisher, electric seats and windows, a telephone and a dashboard-mounted television set.

Claims for the top speed of this vehicle suggested it was capable of over 200 mph (322 km/h);[1] however, these claims are unsubstantiated as neither were ever seriously test driven at the time.

Founded in 1972 by Robert Jankel, the Panther company enjoyed success throughout the 1970s with retro-styled cars based on the mechanical components of standard production cars from other manufacturers.

The Panther Lima bodyshells were manufactured in Fibreglass, by Industrial Marine Fibreglass (IMF), who were based on the Milber Industrial Estate, Newton Abbot, Devon.

Notable examples included 1975's Panther Rio: based on the Triumph Dolomite, but appointed to "Rolls-Royce standards" — the cost of which was equivalent to three Triumph Dolomites. Another, and particularly unusual, model was the three-axled Panther 6.

During the late 1970s the company was also engaged in developing a hovercraft using a pair of Honda Gold Wing, 1000cc motorcycle engines; one for the lift fan and one for the directional thrust fan. This was developed in some secrecy at the home of one of the directors of the company in a barn in Surrey with technical help at one point from a specialist race mechanic working for a Honda dealership in South London. Progress and development stopped when the company collapsed. The present location, or even existence, of the vehicle is unknown.

The Panther Westwinds company collapsed in 1980 and was purchased by Young Chull Kim. Production of J72, DeVille and Lima restarted in 1981. In 1982 Young Kim's Jindo Corporation in South Korea constructed the steel chassis platform and aluminium body for a Ford mechanically based car to replace the Vauxhall-based Lima. Production of the new two seater to be called Kallista began at Canada Road, Byfleet in February 1983. Production transferred to a second factory within the Brooklands racetrack in January 1984 and continued there until April 1988. In July 1987 Jindo sold their interest in the Panther Car Company to SsangYong. Another Panther car factory was opened at Harlow, Essex in February 1988 for the new Panther Kallista convertible and its production commenced there while also continuing at Brooklands.

Later development of the brand new original Panther Solo, a modern sportscar commenced in 1983 at Canada Road. A re-design of Solo changed it from a rear drive two seater into a four-wheel drive two plus two. In the spring of 1990 SsangYong announced the cessation of Kallista production at Harlow, followed in the Autumn by their announcement that production of Solo would also stop. SsangYong transferred the stock of parts to South Korea where they developed a glass re-inforced plastic body for the Kallista to be mounted on a chassis modified to increase interior width by 4 cm. The project was not a success although a number of wide body new 1990s Kallista models were sold in mainland Europe. SsangYong suffered financial difficulties and in 1999 their motor division was absorbed into Daewoo.

In 2001 Jankel bought the Panther name back from Korean ownership. He was finalising a new sports car design when he died in 2005. His son Andrew Jankel described it as an "unfinished symphony". The production was supposed to have taken place in the United States.[1]
