The LG6 significantly differed from its predecessor, the LG45, featuring extended, prominent teardrop pontoon-like fenders and sweeping lines designed by Frank Feeley. It is regarded as one of his most seductive and beautiful designs among pre-war sporting drop head coupes, even exceeding the elegance of its Rolls-Royce competition. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;679a3301d97fb&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on-async--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-id=\"347268\" src=\"https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-1-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-347268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-1-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-1-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-1-1140x642.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-1.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-label=\"Enlarge\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"\/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg><br \/>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" data-id=\"347267\" src=\"https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-10-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-347267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-10-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-10-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-10-1140x642.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-10.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Beyond its striking appearance, the LG6 also delivered impressive performance. Walter Owen Bentley redesigned the 4.5-liter overhead valve inline six-cylinder engine to produce between 130 and 150 horsepower (exact figures vary) at 3,800 rpm, mated to a four-speed manual transmission that enabled a top speed of 105 miles per hour. The vehicle is equipped with a forged front beam axle featuring semi-elliptic leaf springs, Lurax hydraulic dampers, a live rear axle with semi-elliptic leaf springs, four-wheel mechanical drum brakes, and disc wheels with Lagonda knockoffs. Following World War II, only six LG6 Rapides were produced from a total of 85 Lagonda LG6s manufactured between 1937 and 1939.<\/p>\n<p>In late 1938, chassis number 12348 began construction for its first owner, Mr. McCall, a Birmingham businessman who anticipated delivery on New Year\u2019s Day 1939, but the car was not in fact delivered until 24 January 1940. After the war, it remained in the United Kingdom until acquired by new owners in California between 1960 and 1962, before moving to Toronto, Ontario, in 1967. It subsequently returned to the U.K. by the early 1990s, later traveling to Germany, and eventually being acquired by a Dutch owner in 1999. After this acquisition, a thorough restoration was completed, and the car was entered into the 2000 Pebble Beach Concours d\u2019Elegance, where it received a class award. The same owner also entered 12348 in events such as Villa d\u2019Este, the Louis Vuitton Classic, and Paleis het Loo, consistently winning in its class.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;679a3301da07f&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on-async--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-id=\"347266\" src=\"https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-9-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-347266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-9-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-9-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-9-1140x642.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-9.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-label=\"Enlarge\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"\/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg><br \/>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;679a3301da790&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" class=\"wp-block-image size-large wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on-async--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-id=\"347265\" src=\"https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-8-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-347265\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-8-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-8-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-8-1140x642.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/news.dupontregistry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1939-Lagonda-LG6-Rapide-8.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-label=\"Enlarge\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"\/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg><br \/>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<p>The elegant exterior has aged gracefully since the restoration, still presenting beautifully with a light patina of use within the luxurious leather interior.
