Lagonda 2.6 Litre Drophead Coupe

This car was in the paddock at the VSCC's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in May 2011.

It's a 1952 Lagonda 2.6 Litre Drophead Coupe, one of 510 4-door saloon and 2-door coupe versions of the car that were produced between 1948 and 1953. At the time of its introduction the 2.6 litre was the only British car to have independent suspension, with coil springs at the front and torsion bars at the rear, and the 2,580cc straight-6 engine was the basis of the engines used to power the 1950s Aston Martin models.
This particular car was offered for sale by H&H Classic Car Auctioneers in October 2014.
