LAGONDA 2-LITRE SPEED MODEL

Tourer, saloon.

Still too much weight, but lots of elegance now that the excellent five-bearing engine's mounted in a rear underslung frame. Cycle-winged bodies (by Lagonda) most handsome and you'll get 80 plus with the normally-aspirated version. Optional blower (from '31) gives you 90 and an acceptable 18mpg. Continentals (late '32)  with inclined, shuttered radiators and bigger brakes.
