1934 Lagonda M35R

This 1934 Lagonda M35R has been meticulously maintained. A rare and beautifully preserved example, it’s ready to be enjoyed by any discerning collector. After being purchased in the 1980's the car was restored and maintained with no expense spared.

The 1934 Lagonda M35R was powered by a 3. 5 litre Meadows straight six engine with twin carburetors, renowned for its smoothness and reliability. Delivering strong torque and dependable performance, it was equally suited to road use and competition. The 3½ litre M35 displaced 3, 619cc and featured a seven-bearing crankshaft, mounted in a short wheelbase version of the 3 litre chassis.

According to Lagonda Club records, chassis number 'Z11270' was supplied new in December 1934 and first registered on 14th September 1935. Its original registration was 'WS 5888', an Edinburgh mark. The Club's next record of the car is dated November 1955 when it was in Musselburgh, only six miles from Edinburgh. In 1975 the Lagonda was in Beverley, East Yorkshire and in 1989 in Clitheroe, Lancashire. A full restoration was done in the early 1980's. The body remains in beautiful condition today.

This M35R has been maintained regardless of cost: all new wheels and tires have been fitted recently together with new kingpins while the brakes, differential, half-shafts and bearings have been overhauled and the radiator restored. Combining strong performance and real style, this gorgeous Lagonda M35R represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire one of these rare and exciting prewar sports tourers.
