The Aston Martin's bespoke only-for-middle-east saloon - Lagonda meets the world with the quintessential sportscar British marque rolling out the official images of car being tested in Oman. The saloon is based on the Rapide's VH platform and uses Aston Martin's updated V12 motor.

Currently, Lagonda will be doing extensive testing in Oman in the next four weeks. The sedan will cover nearly 22,530km (14,000 miles) in Oman before heading to UK for final rounds. On the design front, it features unmistakable Aston grille flanked around sleek headlight cluster. While the side profile features original Lagonda-esque long hood and a shorter rear profile which makes it unique.

'The Finest Of Fast Cars' - Lagonda Saloon will feature Aston Martin's updated 6.0 liter V12 with power figures ranging close to 600bhp with torque above 600Nm making the carbon fiber-bodied Lagonda to sprint from naught to 100km/h milestone in approx 4.2 seconds. All the power goes straight to the rear wheel through an 8-speed automatic gearbox.

But leave aside all the things just look at her – that is one gorgeous saloon on the planet. But sadly only less than 100 units will be handcrafted at Aston Martin's facility in Gaydon, Warwickshire UK. And if you are having some oil fields in Middle East than this "exceptional automotive art" can be yours *condition apply. As this will be available to customers available only on an invitation basis!
