About this car
The Panther DeVille was a coachbuilt oddity: a Jaguar-based luxury car styled after the Bugatti Royale, built by hand in tiny numbers between 1974 and 1985. Around 60 were made, and it was long the most expensive production car in Britain. This 1984 example has the 5.3-litre V12, the most sought-after engine option.
It is presented as the first left-hand-drive DeVille built and as the car shown at the Los Angeles Auto Show, which makes it rare even among a rare run. The page describes it as having been recently re-trimmed, with a tan interior inside the brown and cream exterior.
It is an automatic petrol car. Mileage, registration and ownership history are not given, and the price is on application. The car is at the dealer's London showroom.

Hand-built in small numbers, not an announced limited run.).
