Äußerst guter Zustand
Aufwändig restauriert

Von 1938 bis 1940 wurden nur ca. 3035 V12 als DHC-Version produziert!
Dieser legendäre Klassiker verfügt über einen kraftvollen V12 Benzinmotor mit 4-Gang Schaltgetriebe
Blattfederung und hydraulischer Trommelbremse
Damals konnten zwei V12 bei dem legendären Rennen von Le Mans den 3. und 4. Platz belegen ( In der 1. und 2. Kategorie)
Damals schon ein Traumwagen ist der Lagonda Drophead heute wohl einer der begehrtesten britischen Grand Tourer seiner Zeit
gerade mit seiner wunderschönen stromlienien förmigen Coupé-Karosserie
Laut dem Lagonda Club of Great Britan wurde das hier angebotene Fahrzeug an James Scott erstausgelifert
die hintere Stoßstange wurde übrigens optional ausgewählt und ausgestattet
Der Lagonda blieb bis 1964 in Großbritannien und wurde dann nach Chicago
Illinois exportiert. 1987 kehrte der Wagen nach Großbritannien zurück und wurde dann nach Schweden geliefert. Dort befand sich der Lagonda in einer kleinen privaten Sammlung wo auch einige W.O. Bentleys beheimatet waren
Später wurde der Wagen von grund auf bei Rhodins Automobil Service in Schweden mit einem Arbeitsaufwand von 6.000 Stunden restauriert und fand seine Fertigstellung 2008
Seit der Restauration wurde der Wagen in einer beheizten Garage aufbewahrt

A well-known example
documented by the Lagonda Club
One of the great engineering masterpieces of its time
Desirable and beautiful drophead coupe bodywork
Long-term former American and Swedish ownership
Classic Car Club of America (CCCA) Full Classic
Rare is the opportunity for an engineer to express all of his talents with few limitations
but W.O. Bentley was given the chance to do just that when he arrived at British automaker Lagonda in the late 1930s. He put together a V-12 that was composed of Cromidium
Dralumin
steel
aluminium
and phosphor-bronze
and every single component was tested so that it would perform flawlessly under any operating condition. It sat on a chassis that had independent front suspension and four-wheel hydraulic brakes
which greatly improved handling and stopping power
A Lagonda V-12 with a closed body once covered a distance of 101.5 miles in one hour
which is an impressive figure for the time
and it is even more impressive when one considers that they had to stop and change a flat tyre midway. Two special-bodied V-12s finished 3rd and 4th overall (1st and 2nd in class) at Le Mans. The performance of the Lagonda V-12 astonished the world
and today
it is arguably the most desirable British grand tourer of its era
especially those in the factorys beautiful
streamlined drophead coupé bodywork
According to the Lagonda Club of Great Britain
the V-12 Drophead Coupé offered here was delivered new to James Scott and Son
of Dundee. It was finished in Gunmetal and fitted with an optional rear bumper. The Lagonda remained in the UK until 1964
at which point it was exported to Chicago
Illinois. By 1976
the V-12 had made its way to the western U.S
under the tenure of Worth Simpson of Craig
Colorado. It returned to the UK sometime thereafter
and in 1987
it was acquired by its current owners fatherfor the sum of £18,000from the former firm of Porters of London. The Lagonda was destined for Sweden with its new custodian
and there it would remain until most recently
Under its long-term family ownership
the Lagonda was part of a small collection of vintage cars
which included several W.O. Bentleys. The car remained as-acquired for some years
until the owner undertook a restoration with Renoverad hos Rohdins Automobil Service in Sweden
which took some 6,000 hours to complete and was finished in 2008. Since
