Dennis Stratton was recorded as owner in 1957 who lent the car to film companies to use in several films, most notable the famous English film “Doctor in the house”  Stratton later sold the car to Johnny White in 1962. Mr. White kept de car in his ownership for many years until he past away and the car was inherited by is Step-son. He sold the car in 2009 to the current owner who slowly restored the car to what it is today, a wonderful drivers car with all the mechanics and bodywork restored.

Johnny White was an ex-employee of the old Lagonda Company who then owned a Lagonda Dealership in Bourne End from the 1930’s. This car was the last of several Lagonda’s that he owned over the years and we know that it was used in the film Doctor in the House in 1954.

The car was partly restored by Peter Whenman before the current owner bought it and during his ownership, it had a rewire, a full bodywork restoration including woodwork, new fuel tank, new wheel bearings, leaf springs refurbished, rear axle refurbished with the longer ratio from the M45 Rapide, a complete restored gearbox and a complete engine rebuild upgrading with a new crankshaft to give 4.2 Litres and close to 190 bhp. Added to this it has just undergone a complete re-trim of the interior in beautiful Red Leather.
Everything works perfectly and it is ready for many rallies to come! The sweeping lines of the T9 Tourer body makes this car a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Quite fast without losing the elegance.

Please come buy to test the car, you will be very impressed!
