Was one of these that I passed everyday on the way home from school. As I’ve got older the impracticalities become more obvious but I’d still have one

4 wheels at the back I get 4 wheels at the front seems like an unnecessary complication, anyway have this monstrosity...

As I’ve got older the impracticalities become more obvious but I’d still have one Pretty sure one used to live on Station Road in Winslow unless my memory fails me massively.... Always thought it was super cool.... However, not as cool as a Carmichael 'Highlander' tbf...

Who could forget the Panther 6? Here's the other one I moved a couple of times for a customer: White, with a red leather interior and gold plated trim. It was complete, but didn't run. They use mk2 Capri doors covered with a GRP skin if you're interested.

When I was a kid many moons ago I would walk by a Renault 12 estate that had been stretched to six wheels. From what my memory remembers it didn't look to bad but who knows how well built it was this was the early to mid 80's. From all the colours it could have been it was painted hearing aid beige. Only saw it on the road twice and it did look very long.
Also lost a surprising amount of (work) time to the website posted up in this thread.
