Panther Kallista

The Panther Kallista was a hand-built two-seat roadster made by Panther Westwinds in Surrey from 1982 and sold until 1990, with a SsangYong-built version that carried on until 1993. It replaced the Vauxhall-based Lima as the firm's volume model and drew its mechanical parts from Ford, with engines running from a 1.6 litre CVH four-cylinder to a 2.9 litre Cologne V6. The body was aluminium over a purpose-built steel chassis, and its styling echoed older Allard and Morgan cars. After SsangYong took over the Panther company in 1987 it built a badge-engineered SsangYong Kallista in South Korea from 1991, with a glass fibre body about ten centimetres wider than the Harlow cars, and only 77 of those were made.
