Thanks for the quick response I will give them a call.

Hi All, I am waiting my Pantera too, from March first but last sunday the car arrived at Barcelona, I hope wednesday I got the car...
Car was supposed to reach the UK by the 12th but according to the tracker supplied it's been off-loaded in Rotterdam.....so I'm still waiting

Surprised the Pantera was loaded backwards on the trailer.
Be careful unloading so the front nose doesn't scrape!!!...Mark

Dont be worry, the Pantera arrived safely
Decades ago, it was found that loading a Pantera on an open trailer backward sometimes resulted in lots of body damage. The jiggling and bouncing (trailers usually have no shocks) tends to release the decklid latch- which aren't the most secure anyway. Then the air blast wraps the deck lid over the top, in one case breaking the windshield as well as warping the top structure where the hinges attach. You got lucky, or drove slow! Sure- the tongue weight is better with mid-engine cars loaded backward but risking body damage isn't worth the tow convenience IMHO.
Have I been hacked? Who says it was loaded backwards? It wasn't...it went on forwards and we rolled it off backwards after freeing the clutch

In your picture the car is loaded with the rear end nearest the hitch i.e. "backwards".

Hello Husker; I believe the confusion lays in that "2" individuals Pishadeperro & Oriol both seemingly had the Panteras arrive in close time proximities, as Oriol's Pantera was the car loaded "backwards"...Markquote:Originally posted by Husker:

Ah,yes. Hopefully Oriol didn't have any issues.
Oriol congratulations for finally receiving your Pantera.
I hope it is understandable that if you had begun a new topic, rather than merging into Pishadeperro's topic, confusion could have been avoided. No big deal, but something for your consideration in the future.
Pishadeperro ... hopefully soon!
