The limited edition Aston Martin V12 Zagato

Aston Martin, the luxury sports car brand has always conjured up both an exotic and classic feel when thinking of one of their cars. The Aston Martin company heritage has firmly come from its racing pedigree which spans almost 100 years.

With all this in mind its time for a very special Aston Martin to come to the fore, the much awaited Aston Martin V12 Zagato will go into production next year. The hand-built Zagato is based around the Vantage and features a carbon fibre & aluminium body and a 510bhp six litre V12 engine.

Recently two prototypes were put through their paces during endurance races at the Nürburgring, in Germany, which included the 24-hour event. The new road legal version of the V12 Zagato will be a limited production of only 150 cars.

If you are not lucky enough to get you hands on a new Zagato, why not consider a used Aston Martin? As when you drive an Aston Martin, you are driving a piece of British motoring heritage.
