The $370,000 Aston Martin Lagonda Is the Weirdest Luxury Car Ever

CHECK OUT CARS & BIDS

The Aston Martin Lagonda is the weirdest luxury car ever made. Today I'm reviewing a 1987 Lagonda, and I'm going to show you why this $370,000 luxury car is so bizarre and unusual -- and why the Lagonda is one of my favorite cars.

You can just tell that car has probably seen over a ton a cocaine back in its day.

Having been a Captain at an airline for 30 years, I can assure you that one of the engineers was either a pilot or aircraft engineer. There are many features and names that mimic aircraft switches of the time. The Standby switch is a prime example.

This is the car we all used to draw in grade 3.

I had the honor of seeing one of these up close at a childhood friend's house (a friend of his father owned one) in the '80's. At that time it seemed like the coolest car I have ever seen. Watching this review today, nearly everything about this car's design seems like an afterthought.

Those gauges perfectly explain why the chiron has no screen

i can’t be the only one who thinks that the screens are still sick

This is the cheapest looking expensive car I have seen in my life.

When a Lotus Esprit and a Lincoln Town Car really love each other very much…

12pm : it's late I should go to bed

I always loved this car for some reason. They had one for 11, 000 used nearby some time ago. That’s some serious depreciation

Screens make it seem like you're in Fallout 3.

Gotta love the thighbuster handbrake when it’s engaged, gives it a more of a personal feel to the driver when they park on a hill

[jimivey]

The head rest pillow is a nice feature. On long trips, the driver can sleep while he’s driving.

"What time is it?"

"4:68 pm."

I can imagine going into my local AutoZone: "Umm... Do you guys have a bonnet release sensor for a 1987 Aston Martin Lagonda?"

[lamartya.]

I don't know how the 70's version compared, but as a kid in the 70's just having my license, I just absolutely loved this body style and especially the front with all the lights. Thanks for this review. It just shows how some car companies wanted to be unique to all the other cars out there.
How wild! Thanks again.

A British made car made in the 80s still working ? That is really wierd

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.
