Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1901 Panhard-Levassor Type B1 M4E is a rare survivor, formerly owned by Mademoiselle Thorcy and later upgraded by Arthur Veil-Picard. Restored to its original glory after a period of modification, it boasts a potent four-cylinder engine, advanced electromagnetic gearbox and coachwork attributed to Kellner et ses Fils.

Condition
7
The car was modified at one point, but it has been restored to its original configuration in the early 1990s. This suggests that while there may have been some wear and tear, it has been addressed through restoration. The listing mentions that the car was slightly modified to allow driving from the cab and replacing the front seat. However, it was carefully restored to its original configuration in the early 1990s. The listing notes that the car is in a charming condition and provides an excellent entry for events like the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run.
