Aston Martin Lagonda?

Is it me or does it not look like an Aston? The front grill is wrong for starters.

Can't tell from the camo. But, why would you expect a Lagonda to have an Aston shaped grill?

AJN334 is infamous around these parts
It may truly be branded as a Lagonda. I found this article as well:

Wow, as if Aston does not have enough problems right now...not sure its a good move to try and revive a brand that has been dead for more then 30 years while they are facing their problem with sluggish sales. Aston's strongest asset is its name and branding.

I hope that's not the next Lagonda

I had 3 Lagondas - a Series II, Series II and Series IV - all commanded the street. I went to park next to a Maybach - nobody look at it, all were looking at my 1984 Lagonda that I paid $14,000 for on E-Bay.


At 4-Way stops - the Lagonda has the right-of-way. It either gets the 'holy crap, what's that' it's beautiful, or same with 'its ugly', but most think beauty that I've met. The interior smells of leather and wood and as you slowly sink into the seats you have trouble leaving. It's enormously long, yet as low as a new corvette - with absurdly large wheels - nothing has the proportions on the road as a Lagonda - nothing. Aston is showing a car that looks like an old American sedan - nothing looks special. They need to think of making an English Dusenberg - an English Bugatti something that commands the road and commands attention. The ugly pig of an SUV would have been a laugh.

I assumed it would be an Aston Martin Lagonda, not it's own line. If that were the case, I'd expect the Aston signature grill.
