So there is made a LHD Lagoon R75...if...only if it was available somewhere...would fit the collection for sure...or do I have to keep dreaming?

Only 2 Rover 75's went to Germany in Lagoon and both were Tourers (one of which Trikey has sent you details for) also a ZT-T 190. Never been able to find the other Tourer which will be a mk 1 but might still exist

There was a mk 1 saloon sent to Libya also

Not sure of the colour as it's likely that the lighting and (probably) camera flash have made it look different to how it would appear 'in the flesh.' According to the image info this is a launch car which would have been built in Cowley. If you look closely you can just make out that the sill and lower front bumper are actually black. As far as I'm aware the Monogram colours weren't launched until 2002, so it's definitely not Lagoon.

There was a left hand drive Lagoon 2.0 V6 saloon that was destined for Libya. Whether it still survives is another question though.

This could indeed be the case, I noticed it yesterday on my tablet thinking it was lagoon, and seeing it today on a different screen of my laptop, it does show some colour difference. Well, anyhow, I thought it was nice to place on the forum for those who do have one

.

And, maybe in the future, I could always go for a respray of a silver 75 which are wide available and turn it into a Lagoon! But for me it must be a Saloon, because I think the design is more beautiful than a Tourer.

Nice cars you have, Libya....hm, that could take a while to discover a car over there I guess...

Let us hope it still is on the roads...in the meanwhile, enjoy your beauty, such a nice car.
