I had a book of "Exotic" cars when I was a boy that had a feature on the Lagonda, I loved it then and I love it now. Frankly, I find them amazingly beautiful - though most "experts" in the field completely discount them.
From what I've gathered, the "oh-so-modern in the 80's" digital dashboard is prone to problems, and I understand that the cars were never particularly quick, but they sure were distinctive...
One of my all time favorites...
