In our review on the occasion of the 70th anniversary of Aston Martin’s Vantage models, we last presented the V8 Vantage and its model siblings, which rolled off the production line between 2005 and 2017. The V12 Vantage Zagato was also briefly mentioned, of which 101 units were originally planned, but in the end probably only around 70 were built. A red-painted concept car of this variant celebrated its world premiere in 2011 at the Concorso d’Eleganza at the Villa d’Este, where it won the prototype class and was nicknamed Zag. Together with a second, green-painted car named Zig, this car competed several times in VLN races and the 24-hour race at the N\u00fcrburgring. From 2012, the small series production of the road version finally started.

The Italian coachbuilder used the 517 hp Coup\u00e9 version V12 Vantage as a basis, which marked a preliminary highlight of this series. After a facelift in 2013, the top model even increased its output to 573 hp as the V12 Vantage S. Another year later, however, four vehicles with the body of the V12 Vantage Zagato rolled out of the halls at Zagato, whose engines were four cylinders smaller. A VIP customer from Qatar deliberately ordered this V8 Q Zagato named model offshoot with the 4.7-liter V8 engine from the V8 Vantage S. Although it only had 436 hp and 490 newtonmeters of torque at its disposal, its weight was reduced by around 50 kilograms.<\/p>\n\n\n
