It happens at Adria, in a round of the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters. On the first lap, the Audi A4 French Alexandre Premat, probably hit by a car competing in a series by monstrous drums before ending his run completely dislocated.

While it was thought that the first revival of Lagonda is ultimately a limousine based on the Aston Martin Rapide, we must reconsider our certainties.
Indeed, the boss of Aston Martin, Ulrich Bez said in a demonstration in Amsterdam for the Lagonda concept at Geneva Motor Show in 2009 would enter into production well. This model is particularly designed for Chinese markets, Russia and the Middle East.

Nine months after pregnancy ends of the coupe, and a later pregnancy will the convertible.

Interestingly, despite that "Cadillac" and "four cylinder" are notions that GM still cause chills when used in the same sentence (the shadow of the Cimarron is elongated, and the BLS was also to forget), the base engine ATS will be an atmospheric 2.0, although there will be a turbo option, a V6, and with any luck, a V8 under the hood of the ATS-V version, which should go on sale in 2014.
And the presentation of the concept? We'll be surprised if not in January as part of the news from Detroit ...

Difficult to make a decision and approach the car as there is little evidence to tell us about the car. We discover the equipment, such as the ionizer, the Bose stereo, electric seats and massage but what about the Latitude and its qualities, its engines, 2.0 dCi L and 3.0 L, fun to drive this new car.
It seems that Guillaume will have to find a more appropriate time for dance classes, because Ulrich Bez has confirmed that the project goes ahead as Lagonda SUV.
