Aston Martin Lagonda Ltd. has been testing a four-door model that may signal the company's plan to revive its dormant Lagonda nameplate, Autoblog.com reports.
The online publication posted several spy shots of a disguised sedan undergoing road tests in the U.K. The car reportedly would ride on a stretched version of Aston Martin's Rapide S sport coupe platform and be powered by the company's 6.0-liter V-12 engine.
Autoblog says it isn't clear whether the sedan is headed for production. The last model bearing the Lagonda name went out of production about 25 years ago.

Mustang Changes for 2018
On Tuesday Ford unveiled—using the social media channels of actor Dwayne Johnson (this has got to unnerve some of the auto buff book editors)—the 2018 Mustang, which has undergone some modifications: under the hood (the 3.7-liter V6 is giving way to a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four, and a 10-speed automatic is available), on the dash (a 12-inch, all-digital LCD screen is available for the dashboard), at the tires (12 wheel choices), on the chassis (MagneRide damper technology is being offered with the Mustang Performance Package), and on the exterior (three new paint colors). And while on the subject of the exterior, there are some notable changes—a lower, remodeled hood, repositioned hood vents, new upper and lower front grilles, LED front lights, revised LED taillamps, new rear bumper and fascia.
