Lagonda is a British luxury car brand established in 1906, which has been owned by Aston Martin since 1947. The trade-name has not had a continuous commercial existence, being dormant several times, most recently from 1995 to 2008 and 2010 to 2013.

It looks ugly and unfinished. for that money and you in a spirit to buy luxury, it is better to get a brabus mod or maybach, or an audi, or bentley. Honestly this looks off. The turn signal quarks exists in different brands. mercedes and audi and genesis have magnetic doors which make it stay at any open position. the entertainment system looks like a 2017 ipad stuck on the seats, again unstylish. and omg, look at the front infortaintment screen, oh dear god, you can get a better screen from a 10000 dollar toyota. the gauge cluster is old and not beautiful, you can get a better ash tray than that cheap tin from an aluminium soda can
Anyone who actually paid $1m for this got scammed. It's a truly pathetic attempt at a luxury car when you compare it to other (much cheaper) Rolls/Bentley offerings.
Agreed. So many people here gushing over it. Like, am I missing something? Ugly design, cheap plastics in the interior, recycled parts, literal iPads as rear infotainment? Apparently a 'unique' car with leather-wrapped everything justifies a $1M price tag. I don't get it.

@@matthewjones9366 Doesn't need them. Civilised British people don't perspire, and have staff to massge them, if desired. It's all about tradition, not borrowing features from a lazy-boy recliner. If you must insist on such.. common 'luxuries', perhaps this is not the carriage for sir or madam? Ok, so that's semi-sarcasm, but can also be the attitude in the great British class system. If the AC works and the seats are comfy, no real need for those features. Plus they'd be something else to go wrong. I'm still suprised that a brand that prides itself on craftsman ship still uses the Ford switches, even though they're a quirk and feature of every AML review for the last couple of decades.
Saw a video some time back where someone found one, it was parked next to the owner's $300 million yacht. That's who owns these cars, they don't give a shit about the stuff you all are complaining about. LOL
Isn't the Maybach 62 Landaulet the most expensive luxury sedan? When it was made it sold for $1.35million, which, due to inflation, would have been even more when your video was made. The Rolls Royce Boat Tail is around $20 million, but since there are only a few of those so they don't really count.
It absolutely is a foot and a half longer 2013 AS Rapide S with special stitching and a mat body kit. Same interior, same engine, same experience and technical specs... It's great to see that thanks to the Taraf I can drive a Rapide S for 60k 😁

Ford directly stole the design of the Aston Martin Vantage when designing the Ford Fusion funnily enough. It’s sad to say Fords marketing ploy has worked as now people think Aston fucking Martin stole Fords Yee-Yee ass design.
"Most expensive luxury sedan ever"
*Has literal iPads for screens in back*
Imagine somebody hit you and then their insurance had to pay for it
@@BigpurrEli A minivan hit the back of a McLaren around the corner from my house. I know the owner of the McLaren and he said their insurance covered everything and settled as soon as possible. Guess they thought someone rich enough to buy a McLaren had an excellent lawyer too.
i see that you don't think about stuff more than 5 seconds... it makes all sense that it has ipads on the back
Its normal..what expect???
It looks ugly and unfinished. for that money and you in a spirit to buy luxury, it is better to get a brabus mod or maybach, or an audi, or bentley. Honestly this looks off.
The turn signal quarks exists in different brands.
mercedes and audi and genesis have magnetic doors which make it stay at any open position.
the entertainment system looks like a 2017 ipad stuck on the seats, again unstylish. and omg, look at the front infortaintment screen, oh dear god, you can get a better screen from a 10000 dollar toyota.
the gauge cluster is old and not beautiful,
you can get a better ash tray than that cheap tin from an aluminium soda can
"You can see it has a front fender fill, as a lot of cars from this era did."
Doug, this car is 3 years old. It is this era.
lmao the interior is definitely not from this era
Fender fills are definitely a mid 2010s trend, and have fallen off significantly
Fun fact, thisssss video has been recorded in 2030
He's referring to THIS era; ie today.
Doug should be the next James Bond baddie... discusssing the 'quirks and features' of some device he has made to destroy the world...
Anyone who actually paid $1m for this got scammed. It's a truly pathetic attempt at a luxury car when you compare it to other (much cheaper) Rolls/Bentley offerings.
Agreed. So many people here gushing over it. Like, am I missing something? Ugly design, cheap plastics in the interior, recycled parts, literal iPads as rear infotainment? Apparently a 'unique' car with leather-wrapped everything justifies a $1M price tag. I don't get it.
It was for the Middle East. Comments....?
@@AvenirRacing You're both missing it's exclusivity. Whoever buts a car like this will park it alongside "other (much cheaper) Rolls/Bentley offerings". Of course making the body panels from carbon fibre carries a significant cost.
@@byteme9718 Certain cars are entirely made out of carbon fiber yet don't even cost half as much despite it being a McLaren or a Ferrari...
@O 99 Obviously not because they all sold.
Can't wait to get this for 32k in 5 years
You should honestly get a Aston Rapide... it actually looks like an exotic car and not a fucking exorbitant Hyundai...
@@ryu411 no this is like a dodge charger mixed with aston martin taillights im not suprised if someone can make a replica from a dodge charger hellcat
Jonathan2844 bruh it looks like a ford fusion... the rear looks like a 2017-2018 rear fusion, the tail lights look like the clear part (before the red led light) and the grill looks like the expanded fusion grill.... and the headlights flow into it (fusions are seperated) similar design... its basically a concept fusion 😂
Jonathan2844 accord front end* my bad 🙂😂
There’s literally 2 in the whole USA, there’s literally no way they will depreciate.
"you can place the doors exactly where you want and they will stay there"
*door moving all over the place*
actually a lot of cars under 100k have that feature
It doesn't even have soft close
I saw the irony also
Sokol Miftari and the 10$ cylinder is hidden on those 100k cars too lmao
Those hydraulic lifter things fail very quickly, my DB9 doors don't even stay open at all
Grabs the closing door and says "It stays exactly where you leave it". Noiceeee!
"You don't exactly have a million bucks to spend, now do you?"
damn doug you don't have to call me out like that
I got mad when he said that
ruclips.net/video/QyxERb96UKA/видео.html
Tbh this is more of a 100k car than a 1 million car
ruclips.net/video/G6uEoih3tzc/видео.html
100k is a bit low man, I'd say 250k max, but 1 mill is just a fuckin joke
Aston knows rich Arabians will throw silly money at this re-bodied rapide just for the name alone !! While westerners think its a stupid price
I wouldn't pay $50k for it.
megabowzer100 Someone gets it. This is for oil money crowd.
Jesus, for $1M I would expect everything to be flawless with absolutely no shared switchgear from a Ford.
Even a RR Phantom for half the price is a million times more bespoke and luxurious than this glorified Rapide.
@@jiasxin RR is in another league, this is just a botched up Ford
Fun fact: the Aston 6.0 V12 is literally two Ford 3.0 V6s put together. The plain old Duratec found in older Escapes and Fusions.
For all the people talking shit about this car 30 years later Aston Martin is worth 3 million dollars because is so rare and hard to find
Dough: Door stays exactly where you put it, no matter where
Door: Starts closing
@10:02 and continues as if nobody noticed lol
You called him Dough. Lol. Are you saying Doug is chubby?
@@charleel1800 lol xD
LOL I was wondering how long it took someone to notice that
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmao i did not even see that it said dough 😂
“from this era” and “at the time” are peculiar ways of saying “two years ago.” I feel like you made too many excuses for this car.
Agreed. I had to start the video again because by the end of it I was thinking it was a 98
Lol yea he says it like every other sentence and says it like he is talking about a car 10 or 15 years old. Bruh we are in the same era
They won't invite him back if he talks too much shit
I'm glad this comment is here. I didn't want to restart the video to figure out what year this was.
He actually got the model year wrong, the Taraf was only produced between 2015-2016.
Aston Martin:
We will make the Lagonda only for the Middle East market!
Also Aston Martin:
Puts umbrella in the trunk.
and heated seats!!
A real bisexual petrol-head someone takes him her or themselves a little too seriously
Since when did Middle East needs Umbrella...🤔
Nizami0077 ppl use umbrella here to cover themself from sunlight uses as sun shade
@@Nizami0077 When an oil well bursts and it's raining black gold. Didn't you watch _There Will Be Blood_ ?
There’s no way this is more luxurious than an S Class, let alone a Phantom. It’s a re-skinned Rapide at most.
Haha, even an e class is better
No one :- how is this most luxurious sedan ever?
Doug :- Look how they they got glass instead of plastic in between two windows!!!
10:00 "and it will stay exactly there no matter where you put it"
10:03: *Door closes by itself*
Doug: *Tries to hold the door*
I smell a payout from Aston martin
Lol i noticed that
Also I think he was watching that shock absorber in there to see how close it is to its closing point
I thought it was just me... 😅. Agrees with aston Martin as well 😆. Doug is unusually praising way too high.
@@AdithSidharthan Doug praises European Cars more than anything else 😂
I’ve never seen a car so grossly overpriced.
A 1 million-dollar car and it doesn't even have motorised door handles. Nothing in this car represents that price beyond the fact of existing just 120 units.
Doug: "You won't find any Aston Martin logos anywhere throughout the vehicle"
*Opens the radio display, Aston Martin right there
Doug: Quickly changes the screen
And the rear door stays open in any position you choose apart from nearly closed and he quickly grabs it to stop it closing 😂
Aston Martin: stamps lagonda logo on a paper cup.
Doug: notice how they didn't use the aston martin logo, they didnt make many of these limited edition lagonda paper cups, and thats pretty cool!
This car is so overpriced that if it were made in 2000 it's what Gord would've bought with his "MILLION DOLLARS" in Freddy Got Fingered.
"What're you gonna do with a million dollars Gord?"
"HMMMMMMM I WONDER HMMMMMMM"
*buys Aston Martin Lagonda Taraf*
"Easy come easy go. That's all my money, all my money gone."
It's just a rebadged Dixie cup!
It looks like a car from GTA - just a weird mishmash of other cars
That's what I was thinking! So true. Couldn't have said it better myself.
Yesssss you spoke my mind
i think the rapide looks way better
Yeah I thought its a baby between a Ford and BMW i8
Oooh Self Burn Those Are Rare
They must have mistakenly added an extra zero to the price tag. ...and look, it's got an optional see through windscreen.
Should have recorded this review on April 1st.
Lol
Doug, if you think this is the most beautiful sedan ever you're gonna love the new Honda Accord.
🤗
not even close, lol
Bwahahaha
Omg come on Doug, this is almost as ugly as the original. And leather head liner??? Um for a million I don't fucking think so, it better have some kind of glass and a gimmick like Rolls with the constellations. I can't even finish this video ugh 😭
🤣🤣🤣
The headlights looks like they are from a Honda accord.
I'd say the headlights and grille reminds me of the 2020 Ford Explorer
Hahahaha i thought I'm the only one that noticed that
It is.
Looks like a Kia or a Hyundai.
Ya the whole front end
Wtf I wouldn’t even give this car an 8/10 for styling
Then again Doug likes the look of the 996, so 🤷🏻♂️
The front of the car looks like the new Honda Accord
looks more like the new Hyundai Genesis to me
Right😂😂
It really looks that the front of one of those "Genesis" South Korean cars. I definitely prefer the face of other Aston models.
Thought the same damn thing!!! It looks like a Chrysler if Chrysler was going in any direction besides six feet under.
It’s a 2018 tho
I don't care how exclusive this car is, it ain't worth 1 million
Maybe 300k at the MOST.
I couldn't buy this car in 2020 because of the pandemic . Otherwise it's because I can't afford it
Edit 1:(grammar correction)
@@jimbruttan69420 Why would u even buy it?
Thank you
I'd rather buy a Rolls-Royce
Doug’s viewers are the type of people who appreciate Doug’s work by roasting him in the comments for likes.
Facts
13:50 made me laugh. If this was my car, I wouldn’t let kids near it within a 2 mile radius let alone have them sit in the back seat making their mess.😂
Doesn't even have cooled seats in the back, or messaging seats for the back or front. Kind of a big RIP off.
You'd think a car specifically built for the Middle East it would be standard.
I know right? Especially from British manufacturers.
Matthew Jones my moms 2017 Ford Explorer platinum has heated and cooled seats and massaging in the front😂
@@matthewjones9366 Doesn't need them. Civilised British people don't perspire, and have staff to massge them, if desired. It's all about tradition, not borrowing features from a lazy-boy recliner. If you must insist on such.. common 'luxuries', perhaps this is not the carriage for sir or madam? Ok, so that's semi-sarcasm, but can also be the attitude in the great British class system. If the AC works and the seats are comfy, no real need for those features. Plus they'd be something else to go wrong. I'm still suprised that a brand that prides itself on craftsman ship still uses the Ford switches, even though they're a quirk and feature of every AML review for the last couple of decades.
Saw a video some time back where someone found one, it was parked next to the owner's $300 million yacht. That's who owns these cars, they don't give a shit about the stuff you all are complaining about. LOL
10/10 styling? I think it's pretty bland, personally.
He's dumb, just watch the cars
I think the car looks pretty awkward, wouldn't even give it a 5/10. But everyone has a different taste, Doug really seems to like it
I don't think that even Aston Martin would give it a 10.
it's called a doug score for a reason.
@@eby6613 lmao underrated comment
I can’t be the only one that think the headlights look like the Honda Accord 10th gen 😂
BkINGz I thought the same ☠️
Yes bra. It definitely does
first thing i noticed lmao
My '15 genesis looks better than this
Front end is an Accord front end Yes that's exactly what I thought 🤣🤣🤣
Isn't the Maybach 62 Landaulet the most expensive luxury sedan? When it was made it sold for $1.35million, which, due to inflation, would have been even more when your video was made. The Rolls Royce Boat Tail is around $20 million, but since there are only a few of those so they don't really count.
How to make a million dollar car for established manufacturers:
Just make a concept car go into production
I remember the Toyota FT-1 Prototype(Supra) its looks gorgeous but what we get..... a Z4 lol
@Fire Heart took the words right out of my mouth lol
Next year: "Here's why the Taraf lost $800.000 in value"
Hahahahaha
Impossible
Maybe not next year but in 8-10 years, yes.
Or possibly it becomes collectors item
Yep
Aston Martin: oh good the window cleaner is here.
Doug: hi I’m here to drive that million dollar car.
Aston: oh
🤣😅😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭
😂😂😂🤣🤣
03 Greedo 😂
jonny5777 the return of the roast
Mitsubishi Galant vr4 really skyrocketed in terms od pricing
If this car had a Hyundai badge instead of the Lagonda badge, Doug would have gave a 5/10 for styling

This car makes the Rapide even a greater deal than it already is!
It absolutely is a foot and a half longer 2013 AS Rapide S with special stitching and a mat body kit. Same interior, same engine, same experience and technical specs... It's great to see that thanks to the Taraf I can drive a Rapide S for 60k 😁
Exactly！！
Doug - Gives the Phantom a 6 for styling.
Also Doug - Gives this thing a 10 for styling.
What has happened to you Doug?
What do you mean what happened to him? He's not allowed to have an opinion? What a stupid question to ask. 😂
