I own the first V12 made by WO Bentley for Lagonda.
The one Earl Howe set the 100 miles in an hour record at Brooklands with in 1938.
Original reg was FPK 550, it was a saloon (now a Le Mans bodied car in later life).
I have Aston Martin & Lagonda by Michael Frostick and also A History of the marque Lagonda by Davey & May, so wondered if this book held much further info on this car ?
Thanks

wasnt FPK550 turned into a vile tulip wood and copper bodied affair in the mid 1980's?
it was auctioned in the states last year

i think the reg moved between a couple of v12 lagondas, there was some discussion in the vscc mags about it.
