Our interest in the Lagonda Taraf was recently renewed after Aston Martin reversed a decision to offer the car only in the Middle East, but make no mistake; the oil-rich states are the British firm’s primary target.

At last week’s American Express World Luxury Expo in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Aston Marton showcased the luxury sports saloon in a white paint-job. Only four pictures of the car were released from the show, but we’ve added photos from previous presentations and Aston’s own press folder for your clickable-enjoyment.

Originally conceived as a bespoke model made exclusively for the Middle East, the car is now promoted as the Taraf from the Aston Martin Lagonda sub-brand to Europe and other select global markets such as Singapore and South Africa.

Technically, the carbon-fiber bodied Lagonda Taraf is based on the Rapide S using the same 552hp (560PS) 5.9-liter atmospheric V12 engine.
