So 13533 has apparently been sold and the new owner has sent the car to the wannabe Top Gear swedish TV show Gran Turismo where Ted Mannerfelt (previously Jaguar) will "redesign" the car by chopping it up and making a station wagon of it. They begin by declaring the car to be an "awful design to start with". While I must admit that when they show the designers sketches for the project he's not entirely off, how this turns out remains to be seen.

I've seen this car and it's a well preserved series 3 with desirable specs.

Will these people be laughed at when the Lagonda will be worth a fortune in 15-20 years?

Starts at approx 12 mins, in Swedish:

Thanks for posting Victor. Interesting.
Is this item featured in a GT or Auto & MS magazine article and if so could you send me a copy?

Are you sure ? Many cars are for sale at 'relative' low prices at this time... Mr. Green
