This Lagonda is a rare Series 4 model. William Towns, the original designer came back to AML to give this last series a 'make over' prior to Lagonda being honorably retired. The lines were softened, the pop-up headlights were replaced in favor of new six headlamp units and the waist level trim was removed, the outcome was the removal of the early series Lagonda’s sharp edges in favor of a rounder edge in this last series.
Lagondas are rare cars with a total of only 627 examples being built over its 12-year production run, even rarer still is the Series 4 examples of which only 105 were manufactured for the world market, this included both RHD and LHD examples.
This Lagonda is powered by an all alloy dohc 5.4 liter V8 developing 305 bhp @ 5500 rpm and 288 lb. ft. of torque @ 5500 rpm, 6.5 seconds 0-60 with a top speed of 150 mph.
This Lagonda was sold and delivered new through Aston Martin’s main agent in Monaco, British Motors to Mr. G. Anglevi on May 5, 1989. Early history is unknown, but in 2010, this Lagonda made its way to Japan and thus started its Far Eastern Aston Martin collector ownership. While in Japan, it was serviced by well-known caretaker of Astons, Historique Motorsport Service. During this period, the Lagonda went through an exhaustive servicing and sympathetic restoration, merely due to lack of use, all receipts on file. In 2016, this Lagonda was once again returned to its home market and offered for sale by well-known London based Aston Martin Heritage aficionado Nicholas Mee – Nicholas Mee and Company.
Mr. Mee a very good friend of ours was kind enough to service the Lagonda for its yearly maintenance, air conditioning service as well as fit new Avon Turbospeed tires prior to offering it to the market. Shortly thereafter, this Lagonda was sold to a well known collector here in the United States and the Lagonda was sent to The Colonies where it has since been housed with several of its Aston brother and sisters.
Most recently, this Lagonda has been traded to Autosport Designs, Inc. in a multi car transaction. It is complete with its factory built sheet, warranty card, factory books and tool, complete ownership and service history.
This is a rare opportunity to purchase one of the most sought after of the Lagonda series, in excellent, well-maintained condition in absolutely every area. It is superb in every way and ready for immediate use and enjoyment.
