Aston Martin Lagonda: Revived for 100th anniversary

Aston Martin is all set to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Lagonda. Enthusiasts of the much loved car will be there to celebrate, but Aston Martin has something special planned for the event.

To commemorate the long-dormant marque, the car maker is to revive the Lagonda. One thing that I do not understand, Lagonda celebrated their 100th anniversary two years ago, so why is Aston Martin celebrating it next year.

Lagonda was produced independently until 1947, after which Aston Martin bought them out. Aston Martin will show of the new Lagonda next year at the Geneva Motor Show.
