I have a Lagonda master brake cylinder, I believe the girling.

If anyone has any need for it please email me at daveyeger at hotmail.com.

The DB7 is doing just lovely, it is far less temperamental than the Lagonda was. We've booked about 3,000 miles since picking her up in June, many of them with the hood down.

We've also just added a 2006 Range Rover HSE to the stable. Picker her up at auction and have spent the past tow weeks getting the scratches out and having all the TSBs performed by the dealer. She is more tempermental than the DB7 so I fear for my future.

Anyway, good to see all are doing well.

Best,

Dave

I also have 4 Bosch and two original Lucas relays. I can't remember if they are the "B" or "C" relays, but whichever one is more prevalent that is what they are.

I've got a type "A" latching relay that needs repair.

We have a rear seat belt latch, black webbing.

Also around are three cans of freeze 12 and the hoses one would need to charge an old R12 system. You would need to find the Freeze 12 nipple for the A/c low port, that is still attached to 13212 Smile

There is also the original cigar lighter that has gotten a bit mangled I am afraid Sad.

1 pair (don't ask me where the other is) of parking brake pads.

Somewhere around is also a late model water temp sender. I can't remember where it is but if someone needs it I will start looking around.

Best,

Dave

Nice to hear from you again!

My DB7 ran 600 milles this year...But my Lagonda got shipped to England and totaled about 4200kms ( with some overheating issues in the middle of it). I drove her from Belgium to Switzerland three weeks ago and did an 800kms run in 7 hours with peaks at over 200 kms/h...she ran like a dream.

I also added a Morgan to the stable and started disassembling it yesterday... She is in desperete need of a new wood frame and possibly a new chassis...So I have my project for the winter!

It' s also funny that you got a Range Rover Sport HSE, I was test driving one just last Saturday, a 2008 supercharged with 510 HP... It's for my wife, she wants to replace the X-Tyoe Jaguar she now drives. I got her to read you comments on the tempermental nature if the beast...She never believes me! maybe this will serve as a fair warning for her!

Keep on comming here, and I will keep in mind the parts you now have.

You should get in touch with Bill from New York. He just bought 2 lagondas and is trying to make one descent out of it. He needs parts.

wreilly99@aol.com

he is a pationate car guy.

Hello Dave,
I just began to restore my second Lag yesterday...for my son when he'll be 18. Congrats for the DB7 ! Desperately searching for a good LHD Virage at affordable price, maybe I'll get something other before... in another register the RR Sport is amazing too...Nice choice ! Dreams never end !
ps : please post me the part number for the AC, thanks.

To paraphrase the Eagles Hotel Californica:

You can sell it any time you like, but it never leaves.

The DB7 gets a lot of "nice Jag" but the Lagonda usually got a "What is that thing".

There is nothing like a Lagonda. The DB7 is a consolation prize.

I miss the car but my garage floor does not Sad.

Hi Dave,

If you ever get the urge, I just picked up my Lag from Tom P. (Autosport D).
I took her out today for a short sprint. She did 0 to 60 in 6.5 ............................minutes flat! But with what grace...
Thus far the garage floor is still dry. Probably not for long. Was your Lag the pentland sand one?

Happy Thanksgiving!

Mine was the Storm Red/Parchment. I'm sure Tom is still working on it....
