1936 Aston Martin Speed Model 'Red Dragon'
An Aston Martin which was expected to sell for about £1.6m at auction has failed to reach its guide price.
The 1936 Aston Martin Speed Model was once owned by Welsh racer Dudley Folland, a Carmarthenshire-born amateur racer who called the car "Red Dragon".
He adapted the bodywork to resemble a successful early Ferrari which he lost to in races.
It was up for auction on Saturday at Chichester, West Sussex, but a buyer was not found.
