Aston Martin V12 Zagato

Luxury British automotive brand Aston Martin is to unveil the first production model of its V12 Zagato in Kuwait next month.

The V12 Zagato first premiered at the Villa D’Este Concours in May last year, but has until now only been seen in race specification whizzing around the Nürburgring.

The production version intended for customers will be seen for the first time at the Kuwait Concours d’Elegance, which runs February 15-18.

The first deliveries of the £330,000 model are expected later this year, although would-be buyers will need to be quick as only 150 specimens of the Zagato will be hand-built by Aston Martin.

The model, based on the V12 Vantage, features a 6.0-liter V12 engine producing 510 bhp (380 kW) and a aluminum and carbon-fiber body with a bespoke interior.

Italian design house Zagato has refreshed the Vantage’s look to produce a sleek new, widely-praised exterior which appears to account for much of the astronomical price tag and celebrates 50 years of partnership between the two firms.
