Aston Martin Lagonda V8 Saloon
Aston Martin Lagonda V8 Saloon
Built for the personal use of company boss Sir David Brown, a prototype of which only 6 were produced between 1974 and 1976, when the more widely known “wedge” Lagonda appeared.

Great photos
![]() But a small correction is needed: It's not the David Brown's car. His car had a DBS-like front. It was made in 1969 as Aston Martin Saloon V8 Lagonda MP230/1 (known simply as the MP230/1 among the AML fans). The car above is one of 8 Aston Martin Lagonda V8 Saloons built in 1974-1976. The MP230/1 is pictured below (on the right).

I must admit that I saw this thread and thought, "Why is someone making a thread about such an ugly car?" but I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the photos.
This car is not only light years better looking than the more common Lagonda, but it is plain and simple a very beautiful car. Thanks for making my evening a much better one. ![]() |

EDIT: Original image is a bit over-exposed so I did a 10 second edit using PS. Original on the left, PS on the right.

Hi to everyone!
this is my first post in this forum and was encouraged (=forced ) to write by the "very good rules" of this forum!!! Thanks to the administrator of the site!About this old thread: I need to see some pics of the MP230/1 (the first prototype) becouse I am going to make an 1/43 model of the car. I should like to make with the roof open and I hope to find the right picture. I am sure that my participation to the forum will continue becouse I have seen that here there are a lot of very well qualified car enthusiast! |
