Subject: Re: 147 for sale...again!
It does look very nice in the photos - maybe I was being a bit harsh.
I find the sellers descriptions very amusing for these kind of cars, they normally start like this; 'Lagonda Rapide L###/R was sold to a Mr John Smith III of the 'such and such' trading company in 1963 after which it passed into the venerable hands of Sgt... who lovingly cherised and daily polished it etc etc.' All written in the style of a historic factual document about a significant artifact.
Any other car and it would be; 'This Lagonda Rapide has been fully restored, comes with a full history and is in excellent conditon etc etc'.
Am I rambling...I'll get my coat.
