ASTON MARTIN ZAGATO (1986-1990) CAR HISTORY

Car review on ASTON MARTIN ZAGATO

All Aston Martins are rare but the 1986 Zagato was guaranteed to be one of the rarest of all. When Aston Martin released pictures and announced that it would be building only 50 cars at £70,000 ($117,810) apiece, buyers came rushing and all were pre-sold before any had been made. Speculators forced the price up as high as £500,000 ($841,500).

So what was all the fuss about? Italian coachbuilder Zagato had an illustrious history with Aston Martin stretching back to 1958, and this was to be a modern equivalent of the immortal DB4 Zagato. In addition to being a special-bodied Aston, it would be the company's quickest ever car. An already mightily powerful Vantage V-eight engine was tuned even further to give over 430 bhp, and Aston Martin quoted a top speed of 190 mph or 306 kph.

This was essentially a special-bodied, lightweight, short-wheelbase Aston Vantage with two seats and an Italian designed interior. Zagato not only designed but also built the car. There was some concern that the finished article did not look much like the drawings that had convinced buyers to hand over deposits, but there was no doubting the brutal nature of the drive. Acceleration was explosive at 0-60 mph (0-96 kph) in less than five seconds and handling was certainly more incisive than other Astons.

It was decided that the exclusivity of the coupe would not be harmed by adding a limited run of 25 Volante convertibles to the roster, and the prototype drop-top was shown at Geneva in 1987. In fact 52 coupes and 37 Volantes were made in total, the last one being produced in 1990. Controversial it may have been, but it was also the ultimate in Aston exclusivity.
