1939 Lagonda LG6 4½ Litre Drophead Coupé for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1939 Lagonda LG6 4½ Litre Drophead Coupé is a used car showing 14,045 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Dark blue with a Blue interior.

Delivered on 12 September 1939, the car went first to Colonel Mark Mayhew, a pioneer of motor sport who had raced in the Gordon Bennett contest and the Paris–Madrid event. It was in Nottingham by 1959, and in 1963 it crossed to the United States, where Harold Happe, American secretary of the Lagonda Club, bought it.

It still has its original engine, so it is a matching-numbers example. A well-known Belgian pre-war specialist restored the body, paint, chrome and interior and continues to maintain it, and recent invoices record extensive mechanical work. The history file holds period photographs, magazine articles featuring this car, an original sales brochure, invoices and correspondence.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Lagonda LG6 uses the 4,453 cc Meadows straight-six with pushrod-operated overhead valves, carried over from the LG45, with a single dry-plate clutch and a four-speed manual gearbox driving the rear wheels. The chassis is the V12's, lengthened by 3.5 inches, with independent torsion-bar front suspension and Lockheed hydraulic brakes. Twin long trumpet horns beside the grille set it apart from the V12.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands. The dealer quotes it as: VAT included and not reclaimable: sold under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Lagonda LG6 be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Brummen, Netherlands, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history, with supporting documents for the information stated in the listing.

Is this Lagonda LG6 still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with Gallery Aaldering before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.

What is needed to register this car if it does not stay in the Netherlands?

A cross-border registration normally requires the vehicle registration document, the certificate of conformity or an equivalent type-approval record, the purchase invoice showing the VAT treatment, and proof that any tax due in the destination country has been settled. Temporary export plates and transport insurance are arranged either by the dealer or by the buyer. Requirements differ by country and should be confirmed with the selling dealer before payment.
