Silver is a Lagonda not sure about the red I want to say an older Vantage.

Yeah, the AML. It was legendary but as a failure. I remember seeing one back in the 90es in Köln, Germany. Huge but you can instantly see why it was a failure; it was huge, expensive to manufacture and computer supplier was Clive Sinclair :D:D:D

Check this from wiki:

The Lagonda was the first production car in the world to use computer management and a digital instrument panel, although the computers in many of the original cars are failure-prone. The development cost for the electronics alone on the Lagonda came to four times as much as the budget for the whole car. The second series used cathode ray tubes for the instrumentation, which proved even less reliable than the original model's LED display.
The Lagonda combined striking styling with opulent, club-like leather interior, and then-state-of-the-art instrumentation. Coupled to a Chrysler 3-speed "TorqueFlite" automatic transmission its 4-cam carbureted V8 provided poor, often single-digit miles-per-gallon.



But classic nevertheless..
