40 years of Vantage Zagato

Resurrecting the partnership with Italian design house Zagato in the mid-’80s was a masterstroke by Aston Martin’s then-boss Victor Gauntlett, especially when all 50 coupés were immediately snapped up at £87,000 a pop (although 52 coupes were eventually built together with 37 Volante convertibles). The ’80s Zagato couldn’t match the beauty of the ’60s original DB4GT Zagato, but its performance was sensational. Based on the V8 Vantage but with even more power and considerably lighter and more aerodynamic (a drag coefficient of 0.32cd) , it broke 5sec to 60mph and was verified at 185.8mph, making it the fastest Aston Martin of the time.
