XVI : Here come the Panhards

view map

Cranleigh, Surrey

Can't remember the last time I saw one of these on the open road, but three came to the car rally today.

They are model PL17s are produced in France in the early sixties.

Great procession!

Somehow cute looking. I would call this a car with character.

Great 'line ahead' shot of these odd looking little cars, Ray...nicely done. Is that a Roller transgressing into their line??

So Frogs rather than toads - good to see three 'on the road' as it were. Chris

In France you'll see them, mostly used by older farmers and not as beautiful maintained as these.
Very nice capture.

In magnificent condition, wonderful to see the 3 in a row!

Reminds me of a Studebaker model that had a similar profile.

Wow... a new one on me! Although I have seen a Panhard rod...

Very cool. They look like toads.

Lovely old cars - very cute.
Bernard Davis16-Aug-2009 19:48
That's a nice scene.
The first one was registered in 1963 its an 'A' reg number, the second one is a little older. They must be pretty rare on the roads.

beverley harrison16-Aug-2009 19:14
