Glide over London's cobbled mews streets in an ultra-rare Lagonda Rapide

Can there be a better car in which to prowl around London on a foggy November morning than the ultra-luxurious Lagonda Rapide? This fabulous example is currently for sale with Classic Driver dealer Nicholas Mee…

One of fewer than 50 examples known to survive, this matching-numbers 1963 Lagonda Rapide has benefitted from an extensive restoration, and engine and suspension upgrades. With four seats, that powerful straight-six engine, an automatic gearbox and power-assisted steering, the Lagonda is a hallmark of luxury and an effortless cruiser, be it on the streets of London or the highways of the continent. Currently for sale in the Classic Driver Market with officially appointed Aston Martin Heritage specialist Nicholas Mee & Company Ltd, this example has covered a believed 51k miles, and is a car for the most discerning of collectors – after all, exclusivity is everything.
