nah, your miles off. It's because they were so over engineered, so different in their looks and they have the potential to bankrupt you WHEN the electric fail makes it pretty cool to me. Maybe i'm odd.

The Lagonda deserves to be cherished for so many reasons.

Each to their own of course

I'm with you on that one. If it were to appear driving up the average high street today, everyone would stop and gawp, for the right reasons.

Yep- I saw a red one last weekend drive past me on Water Lane in Wilmslow. Lots of traffic- had a lot of time to gawp. Great stuff

Citroen is my favourite. With a good T-cut and black tinted winows that would be seriously cool!

Don't know who that is, but he's going the right way to push himself off the roff into the lock, which is about the most dangerous place there is to fall off! Use the rope or the engine!

Whoops, sorry, thought Iwas on canal.com/forum smile
