1931 Lagonda 2 Litre Low Chassis Tourer


Lot details
Registration No: GP 748
Chassis No: OH-9901
Mot Expiry: None

First registered on 15th May 1931, chassis OH9901 was, in the words of the Spring 2008 Lagonda Club bulletin, restored to a "very high standard" by the late Ken Knapper between 1986 and 1994 and features typical low chassis bodywork with cycle wings running with its original high chassis engine no. 1649 on twin SUs with a concealed full flow oil filter. A combination which can provide better performance at speed than the later engine. Previously owned by Dick Lamb and in the current ownership since 2007, we understand the car has covered less than 10,000 miles since completion of the restoration which is supported by the MoT certificates on file.
Now only being offered to the market due to the vendor's wish to replace it with another Lagonda, it is offered with Swansea V5 document, assorted bills and photographs from the restoration together with more recent invoices for maintenance including refurbishment of the water pump in 2012, VSCC Eligibility Document dated 21 May 2009, 2006 edition of the Vintage Lagonda Handbook, sixteen Mot certificates dating back to 1994, copy reproduction 2 Litre Low Chassis instruction book and gearbox workshop manual together with old road fund licences.
Finished attractively in Green with Green leather interior it is described by the owner as being in "very good" condition and benefits from the fitment of a recent new clutch. This desirable Vintage Sports Car is now ready for a new custodian to enjoy it either on the public road or in the variety of events for which it is eligible.
 

All successful bids must be paid in full by midday the day after the auction at the latest.

You can collect your new pride and joy from our venue until 1pm the day following the sale or our partners are on hand to help arrange safe transportation:
