A man who was a passenger in an open-top classic car has been taken to hospital with serious injuries after a crash.

Police said a Lagonda and a Volvo S60 were involved in a collision on the A465 main road from Hereford to Wales, at Lock's Garage junction at about 17:10 BST on Saturday.

The man, who is in his 70s, was taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital with serious injuries, officers said, in an appeal for witnesses and dashcam footage.

Lagonda is a British luxury car brand that dates back to the early 20th Century and merged with Aston Martin in the 1940s. The brand went through several models and was famous for its angular-styled 1976 Series 2.
