Celebrating 50 Years of Aston Martin & Zagato Collaboration The Aston Martin V12 Zagato, introduced in 2011, was built to celebrate 50 years of collaboration between Aston Martin and the Italian design house Zagato, following the legendary DB4 GT Zagato (1960).
Limited to Only 150 Units Aston Martin originally planned to produce only 150 units, making it one of the rarest and most exclusive Aston Martins ever built.
Powered by a Naturally Aspirated 6.0L V12 The V12 Zagato features Aston Martin’s 6.0-liter naturally aspirated V12 engine, producing 510 hp and 570 Nm (420 lb-ft) of torque.
0-100 km/h in Just 4.2 Seconds Thanks to its lightweight construction and powerful engine, the V12 Zagato can accelerate from 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just 4.2 seconds, with a top speed of 305 km/h (190 mph).
Handcrafted Aluminum and Carbon Fiber Body The body panels are handcrafted using aluminum and carbon fiber, with Zagato’s signature double-bubble roof and aerodynamic enhancements.
Designed for Both Road and Track The V12 Zagato debuted as a race car, competing at the 2011 Nürburgring 24 Hours, before Aston Martin released a limited-production road-going version.
Inspired by the Aston Martin V12 Vantage Mechanically, the V12 Zagato is based on the V12 Vantage, but with Zagato’s unique styling, improved aerodynamics, and lightweight materials.
Exclusive Interior with Bespoke Details The cabin features hand-stitched leather, Alcantara, and Zagato badges, creating a luxurious yet sporty feel inside the cockpit.
Extremely High Price Tag When new, the V12 Zagato had a base price of around £330,000 ($500,000 USD), making it one of the most expensive modern Aston Martins.
A True Collector’s Car Due to its limited production, stunning design, and racing heritage, the Aston Martin V12 Zagato has become a highly sought-after collector’s car, with values continuing to rise.

The Aston Martin V12 Zagato is one of the rarest and most visually striking Astons ever built—a handcrafted, 517hp V12 coupe with no roof, no compromise, and only 101 units produced. Designed as a homage to the DB4GT Zagato, it’s a rolling sculpture that blends Italian design flair with British brute force.

3. Where to Buy in the EU?
Official Channels:
Aston Martin Works (Newport Pagnell, UK)
Zagato Atelier (Milan, Italy)
Private/Auction Sales:
RM Sotheby’s / Bonhams (Elite Auctions)
Supercar Collector Groups (Discretionary Listings)
Pro Tip: Avoid US-market cars—EU taxes and compliance add €300K+ to apparent "deals."
4. Market Trends
📈 Blue-Chip Investment
Prices up 15% annually since 2020 (rarer than a LaFerrari).
Race-spec cars now outperforming road models.
⚠️ Trap Warning
"Bargain" sub-€1M cars usually have hidden damage.
Restomods lose value vs. factory-original.
5. Must-Do Checks
🔧 Mechanical:
V12 compression test (Aston’s 5.9L is stressed at high RPM).
Gearbox health (6-speed manual requires €100K+ rebuilds).
📄 Paperwork:
Verify with Zagato Factory (clones exist!).
No liens (common with asset-backed loans).
Fun Fact: The V12 Zagato’s exhaust was tuned to sound like a DB4GT. Aston’s engineers used acoustic resonators to mimic the 1960s race car!
