Thanks guys.
So my interneting yielded this background:
Looks like these were built 1953-1955 in coupe/convertible form. The 3-liter was continued to 1958 but in 1956-58 it was a 4 door saloon only. Lagonda started in 1906 and was purchased by Aston Martin in 1947. The company more or less folded in 1958 but Aston, as you know, used the Lagonda name as a model name on several cars since then and even revived it a couple of times as a stand alone marquis. From what I can tell these were an expensive car at the time and the body was designed by Bentley.
