Lagonda Rapide - the classiest of the fast cars

July 7, 2014 — Bruno von Rotz 64

From 1961 to 1965, David Brown built the Lagonda Rapide, a top-of-the-range five-seater saloon designed to combine sportiness and comfort. Only 55 cars were sold, the price was probably too high and the design did not convince all potential buyers. This driving report describes the history of the noble saloon, portrays an example from 1963 and shows it in historical and current pictures, including two original brochures.
