How much did it sell for at Bonhams Goodwood Auction? Their website simply says sold without stating an amount.

I tried to find this out also but it was sold after the auction so there is no requirement to publish the sale price. Indeed it may have been a condition set by the dealer buyer that the price was not disclosed for obvious reasons! However, I heard a whisper that it was less than £100k.
In relation to the current asking price, I was told many years ago by a car dealer that as a buyer you should not judge the profit the dealer will make (assuming you know the purchase price) but whether the asking price represents a good deal!
This car is a marriage albeit a good looking one.
Is a former LG45 saloon rebodied as an M45 T8 tourer but retaining much of the LG45 front end really worth original M45 money?
Guess it is down to individual choice.

Shame. Another rebodied Saloon. I dream of the day when people with convert them back!

I have since heard that it sold for £104,000 by Bonhams and that Prestige & Vintage sold it for approaching £200k

Sold for 150000 to a Lagonda man who has now totally dismantled it in order to re-fettle & 'add reliability' for long distance rallies...
