Come hell or high water, no matter how many petrol-dollars some oil-rich Sheikh flashes at Aston Martin’s brass, an official Lagonda pickup truck will never happen. At least that’s what the reasonable part of my head is saying.

Now, independent coachbuilders are another story entirely and I wouldn’t rule out the possibility of someone having the guts to carve out an existing Lagonda, but even in this case, we’d probably see a Shooting Brake first before anything else.

If you haven’t figure it out already, the picture of the Lagonda ute is a digital rendering from X-Tomi.

The actual Lagonda sedan is scheduled for a market launch exclusively in the Middle East early next year.
