8.2?

Sorry not sure what you mean. If engine size, no it's just 7.5l.

The 8.2 was a Cadillac engine, so of GM origin; Lincoln is a Ford brand. That said the contemporary Caddy Eldorado etc have very similar styling, boxy, size of an aircraft carrier, grille like a jukebox.

Hats off for the use of the phrase "just 7.5l"

The correct description is 460

Up the Welsh mountains earlier. Not really driven since the 11th of May so enjoyed

I've always had a soft spot for these.

I'd make you an offer (westie inc) but it'd only languish in my garage.

I think that or a 510ci Caddy would be my perfect weekend car. What's the spares availability like?

Early days yet but seems pretty good. There are a few places that have parts, the engine's just a Ford big block so no worries there. Doubtless a lot of other stuff.

Cotesy of course I can't say 'not 8.2, 460'

I had a guy shouting at me on my commute today '460 MAYT...?' 'Yes mate', 'THE ONLY ENGINE MAYT'

I think it needs some mods ....

It really doesn't. Power is not the weakest link by a long shot.

The Westie is priceless. The S4 is pretty much the same. Need to use it a lot more as love taking it out

Had a bit of a weekend motoring in the Lagonda and visited a friend who took some pictures on his driveway. English classic in a classic English setting.

My grandad was in the home guard in the war and on patrol nights they used to smoke around in the butcher's Lagonda, which he said was something very similar to yours! I think they mainly went from pub to pub.

Absolutely beautiful.

Indeedy...

I took one in front of the old portable airship hanger too (R51 and Q65)

If I remember correctly R51 was the foundry and Q65 a model workshop for the wind tunnels.

I wouldn't know, it pre-dates my existence on earth by quite a few years. I was going by the listed status: http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-502311-...

Met up last evening with a fellow 205 afficionado.
