thanks for the ride! amazing you or somebody brought it to Japan! I have a friend in France so I shall share this with him...again, thanks for the video !!
Thanks. I'm french and imported it myself this summer for a friend here in Japan :) You can read the full review of the car here. oppositelock.kinja.com/1963-panhard-pl17b-relmax-the-oppo-review-1725595392
+traxnada I checked the review :)so are you living in Japan or back home in France? I have a nephew who has been in Japan a long time...teaching English and I guess he is still doing that...Again, thanks for the fun videos...chuck
Hello Pull the gear lever straight toward you, then when it can't go any further, pull it 45 degrees down, still toward you... It might take you a few tries at first but I've you've understood it's easy.
I have followed the 3-11 tsunami and earthquake in northern Japan...it is online at fnn 311 and of course others have videos...I assume you were not in the north...A terrible disaster. Chuck
I had a ’60 PL17 with running engine, fresh transaxle overhauled by Franco-American Motors, drivable, and offered it for FREE to any Panhardiste who would come and get it. No response! Even the Lane Motor Museum, which was restoring a couple of Panhards, wouldn't take it even if I hauled it to them! I thought that the engine and transaxle would have been worth the trouble. Lots of good parts. Two extra engines. Three extra used transaxles. It ended up being scrapped.
Troppo avanti al suo tempo era.nettamente la miglior 850 in circolazione ! Oggi e' facile dirlo ma allora aveva una linea non facile a digerire e in Italia era una mosca bianca ( troppo schiavi di Fiat e solo per i pochi intenditori)en francaise? Trop avant et pas comprise en Italie, silhouette trop moderne,pris elevee: pendant les annee '60 comptai plus la clindree que les chevaux!
Étrange modèle car l'intérieur ne correspond pas à la finition "relmax" qui comportait des sièges avant séparés en finition cuir (ou du moins simili). La banquette arrière bénéficiait également d'un habillage cuir. D'autres détails me surprennent également...mais la mémoire me joue peut-être des tours...

Heureux de revoir une "ancienne" française au Japon ! Les Panhard étaient de bonnes voitures, spacieuses et robustes. Salutations de France...
You brought back some memory's to me. My dad used to own one and it was noisy but it was very comfortabel
A wonderful car. I love column changes. Some spirit lived on in the GS.
Excellent! Sorry, that I missed this back in 2015.
It is great to see this video again!

I'm living full time in Japan, but start importing cars mostly for fun right now, but certainly as a full time business in the near future :)
This car must be incredible to drive in japan, the speed limits and the roads just really suit it.
It's definitely unique for sure :)
It gets quite a few look haha. A DS21 I brought back too is more popular among people though.
Une superbe voiture !
Can you tell me please how to change gear to reverse?

Late reply but oh well :)
No I wasnt in Japan at the time. I live in Okazaki, near Nagoya.

Super article sur Jalopnik!

It has an air-cooled engine?
Yes. Two opposed cylinders engine. As the Citroen 2 CV had.
Beautiful!

Vous avez raison mais la finition que vous décrivez est celle de la Relmax S.
Ça, c'était de la voiture.
Quelle merde cette auto ... tu plaisantes ...
Vous rigolez ou quoi !?
C'était une voiture fiable, solide, et elle tenait bien la route.
On n'en fait plus, des voitures comme ça.
what does Oppo represent?
what is an Oppo thing?
MON DIEU QU'ELLE EST BELLE BELLE BELLE BELLE BELLE EST SOLIDE MILLES FOIS MIEUX QUE LES VOITURE DE MAINTRNANT CEUX DR MAINTENANT C'EST DE LE MERDE
