Having owned one of these in 1985, in the exact same colour inside and out, I can confirm that was, and will still be, the most horrible thing ever. It retailed at £75,000 in UK in 1982 and I bought it with 5,000 miles for £25,000, such was the distain in which it was held. The seats were uncomfortable, it was not fast, or economical, 12 mpg, the engine sounded like a washing machine, with a turning circle of a boat, could not turn into narrow London streets with doing a 3 point turn, after 2 weeks I had to get rid of it, dumped it for £23k and glad to be out of it, never mind about anteater, I was called Lady Penelope or Parker for 2 years after, do not feel you missed anything not having this piece of junk.

Maybe the car wasn't designed with European cities in mind, but rather meant for the American market 😉 American cities are generally a bit more spacy than European cities. Don't try to drive through downtown Amsterdam with a Ford F-150 😉 But I would have expected from Aston Martin that it would have made the Lagonda more sportive in the sense of technique. Now it is mainly a car for American motorways in the era of the 55 mph speed limit.

The equivalent of that was found on my larger body on frame cars until the early 1990s. My uncle once owned a 1990 Cadillac Brougham and I remember him tilting down the license plate to fill its gigantic fuel tank and I remember having to do it rather slowly as it nears full to prevent spills. 😀 I think this was rather common older GM cars, but I've seen that on a lot of Buick's and Cadillac's.

Around 1980 had the unique opportunity to work with an automotive genius named Brian Refoy and his company Javelina Systems redesigning the digital dashboard in Series 2 Lagondas. Javelina Systems was located in a metal building inside another metal building in the middle of a cotton field in Frisco Texas to keep Detroit spies from finding out what was going on inside. Early Series 2 Lagondas had an incredibly badly designed (English) electronic dashboard that was the biggest tangle of wires you can imagine. Intensely complicated, failure-prone and always on the edge of catching fire, the original digital dashboard was the Series 2’s Achilles heel. It HAD to be fixed. Without needless detail, the task of solving the Series 2 digital dashboard disaster fell to Brian Refoy, the aforementioned automotive savant. The spiderweb of wires was dramatically reduced, the fire hazard was corrected and several features were enabled. IIRC all Series 2 Lagondas passed through Brtian Refoy’s shop prior to being completed and sold. Some notes: Lagondas were built with their primary customer base Arab oil sheiks. They were not designed to be driven, they were designed to be driven IN. The driver was most likely a chauffeur. Hence some control placements. That is also why the sunroof is over the BACK SEATS. All Lagonda engines were hand-built by one of two Aston-Martin master engine builders. You could tell who built the engine by listening to the exhaust. The three CRT displays were initially designed for McDonnell-Douglas F-15 fighter cockpits. It’s very bright in the Arabian desert and visibility in high ambient light environment was a hard to meet specification. We tried several Optical Coating Labs offerings before discovering the F-15 displays. The displays could be updated by changing DRAMs so different languages as well as yearly model updates were a simple matter of changing the DRAM. We also had a talking dash feature but I didn’t see you use it. Fun days. ETA: I will look in my notes to see if I can find the "T Reset" control function.

I actually had a chance to drive one of these when I was a valet in Newport Beach CA. It was a Series II without the digital displays. I preferred the series II interior because it was much cleaner and futuristic. I always remembered this car because it was so unusual and luxurious at the time. I also got to drive a Ferrari Testarossa, several Ferrari 308s, Porsche 930s, a bunch of 911s and BMWs including M3s and M5s. That was such a fun job especially for being a teenager.

Doug, I so agree with you. This is the most outrageous, fascinating, and stunning car I've ever seen. I still remember the first time I stumbled upon this gem back in 1982 when I was a paperboy collecting a bill from one of my clients. He was a car nut that dedicated his home as a shrine to the automobile. I shared my love of cars with him and he took me on a tour of his home which was packed wall-to-wall in nearly every room with brochures of just about every car model of that day and going back at least ten years. When he showed me the Lagonda Series 2 with the single-spoke steering wheel, my 12-year-old mind was blown away! Then when he shared that the pop-up headlights were pneumatic and not mechanical like "those crappy ones on the Corvette," my love for the car began to deepen. I must have read that brochure cover to cover multiple times reading every detail down to the copyright information. While the technology looks dated now it was crazy futuristic back then. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, came close to it! When I asked my client if he had ever seen one, he chuckled with the response, "No, these are far too expensive to just be seen anywhere. Only the richest of the rich will ever be able to see one let alone purchase it." Heck, we lived in the heart of Silicon Valley where Benz, Porsche, Bentley, Rolls, and all the other expensive badges were a daily occurance! To his credit, I have never seen one in the "wild" but hope, like you, to be able to one day to enjoy having the immense privilege to. What a car!

Also in the same story was a tale of a Lagonda driver on a country road, just flying when he crested a hill and plowed through the trailer of an 18 wheeler.. the driver stops the car and casually inspects the damage because he really wasn't sure what just happened(as I remember it).

In 1976 digital calculators, electronic digital calculators, portable electronic digital calculators and pocket-sized electronic digital calculators had been in use for years and the prices had come down. Scientific and specialized calculators were also becoming quite common. Parents were even buying pocket calculators for their kids and math teachers were watching out for them as they were considered cheating. Let’s not forget too that this car was made a decade later, not 1976, and such electronic displays were commonplace by then. I first saw digital dash displays on a 1982 Lincoln. The only thing uncommon about this car’s displays is they used what appear to be CRT monitors rather than purpose-built vacuum fluorescent displays. Also, it seems like Aston Martin couldn’t figure out how to do an electronic odometer that was capable of maintaining its count for the life of the vehicle, even tho various American cars had that in their 1985 models.
@jbforce106 жыл бұрын
@@ethanlamoureux5306 true, in '81 my secondary school had very slimline pocket calculators with LCD screens which were solar powered and even then, that was established technology from the 70's. In a car of that budget, using small CRT displays like those used in a Commodore SX-64 or a number of portable stereos of the era to display basic information really doesn't seem that futuristic, it's just current of that period but in a car. I'm quite surprised that they used physical switches and not flat-panel membrane buttons. To me, the exterior design is the stand-out aspect of the Lagonda. Love it or hate it, it's unique.

Truth to be told, he does say he rates all cars to modern standards anyway, which puts even supercars of late decades lower than modern sedans lower in performance.

I can’t believe that an Alpine headunit was installed. Sticks out like a sore thumb.

Brian Westfield -yes, I hate seeing cheap plasticky modern head units in retro cars. Too busy, too many flashy lights. A high-end period Alpine would look much better and sound almost as good. Hell, I'm restoring an 82 Volvo 240 which is hardly a prestige car on this level but I still sourced the correct OEM cassette deck for her. Anything else in that lovely simple angular 80s dash would have looked ridiculous. And you can have most things adapted to take a 3.5mm input now, so you're not stuck listening to old tapes or AM radio.

Richard Edwards agreed. It’s such a shame. The car otherwise looks well kept. The owner should have stayed with a period correct head unit. Such an odd decision.

Better source some replacement transmission mounts or the cassette deck will be the least of your worries.

@@kampfmeersau Haha yeah, was about to mention the Multipla. I don't mind it but it sure put alot of people off when it was released. As a wedge and Bertone fan the Lagonda is the coolest looking luxury car in my eyes.

@you build it we destroy it - I always thought of the Tercel as the kind of car that people just end up with, rather than choosing to buy it. Sort of like the Plymouth Sundance.
