V12 Zag For Sale
Discussion
The 767 mile Diavolo red Zagato being sold on behalf of the customer by HWM mentioned by the OP (for when the link doesn't work) is indeed beautiful in the metal having been to see it. IMO it's a shame more were not made but as discussed when the regular V12V is so fantastic you need to offer a lot more differentiation if you want to charge three times the price.
If they only found 71 people in the whole world to buy one at £400k and only a couple of years ago, not 50 something years as with the DB4, then it will be interesting to see how long it takes to sell at four times the price of a V12V as the price for this one is "around £565,000".

It was a privilege to drive this Zag with AMOC to commemorate the 100 year anniversary of Lionel Martin walking out of the Trowbridge Council office doors with the first ever ‘AM’ registration plate for 'A3'.
A3 was built in 1921.
Think you went to commemorate 'Coal Scuttle' 1915, registration AM 4656.
I don't understand why a 1915 registration has four digits, whereas the later 1920/21 registrations, AM 270 and AM 273 have three.
Sorry for being 'train spotting'.
Am sure you had a very enjoyable day out.

on the subject of Zagato value.... After the article about V12 Zagato chassis 55 in spring 2015 AMOC quarterly, i have had many emails from collectors enquiring if the owner would consider selling it. It will be interesting to see if the HWM car sells, and the comment of value no less than original sale price is probably a good marker and would appear there is a lot of interest in the Zagato at that value, will GT12 command the same years later? Time will tell

I am with you on this. Didn't they struggle to sell all of the previous Zagato editions and look at them now! On a recent visit to Gaydon, with One-77, GT12 etc. it was a Zagato that stuck out for me Gassing Station | Aston Martin | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
