BY FORGING THE FUTURE

FASHION EVOLVES BUT STYLE REMAINS Only 19 pairs of Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato Heritage TWINS by R-Reforged, celebrating the centenary of the Zagato Atelier (1919-2019) and 60-year long partnership between the Milanese ‘Signature’ and British sports car manufacturer will be produced. Exclusive, desirable, and curated by you, for you.

“The Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato Heritage TWINS by R-Reforged are undoubtedly the highlight of our centenary.”

- Andrea Zagato - Zagato CEO

“Aston Martin’s relationship with Zagato stretches back 60 years and together in that time we have created a series of very special cars. The Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato Heritage TWINS by R-Reforged project is a fitting tribute to the Zagato centenary anniversary.”

- Peter Freedman - Aston Martin VP & chief marketing officer

TRADITION BLENDED WITH INNOVATION Created by Zagato and R-Reforged, combining the best of two automotive worlds: a sporting Speedster in its purest form and a timeless Coupé, each features iconic Zagato Design cues synonymous with the Carrozzeria, notably the ‘double bubble’ roof on the Coupé and exclusively, the 100th anniversary gold Z badging. Muscular, purposeful yet graceful and unmistakably Aston Martin.

DETAILS THAT TRULY MAKE A DIFFERENCE Derived from the V12 Vantage S, the Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato Heritage TWINS

by R-Reforged feature a sensitively reworked version of its 5.9 litre, 48 valve, naturallyaspirated engine to produce 600bhp, comfortably 85bhp more than the original.

Clothed in an all-carbon fibre body, both incorporate active aero thanks to a deployable rear wing that improves stability at high speeds whilst maintaining the pure Zagato lines. Look deeper to discover other details such as the bespoke, centre locking 19� forged alloy wheels and sumptuous Bridge of Weir leather interior. Under the skin, a myriad of chassis changes enhance the dynamics whilst the clever use of materials and light weight technology such as the lithium battery technology, ensures the performance is crisp, responsive and rewarding.

AN EXPERIENCE THAT LASTS A LIFETIME Upon ordering, you will embark on an experience like no other; a journey that begins with a tailored carbon fibre gift box and continues throughout your ownership.

You will be invited to our commissioning suite to meet with the designers and to experience, touch and visualise every option before finalising the exacting specification of your Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato Heritage TWINS by R-Reforged.

• At the 1960 London Motor Show, two new Zagato sporting prototypes appeared: the Bristol 407 Z and the Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato.
