Subject: Re: 1953 3.0 litre Lagonda dhc for sale
It seems to me that if one were to analyse the posts on this forum pre and post-war, one would find that pre war are generally technical, and post-war are generally price and sales. Perhaps parts are easier to come by and the cars are easier to work on, post-war model-wise.
Seems odd to me that David Brown called his cars Aston Martins, when in reality, those cars were far more in the pre-war Lagonda mould than pre-war Aston Martin. Perhaps it's simply that he bought A M first, and was therefore committed to that name. At least perhaps this accident gave him the opportunity of reviving the Lagonda name for (simplistically) the 4-door Astons.
