The cars represent the pinnacle of Aston Martin’s Continuation projects to date, and proudly extend the
brand’s 50-plus year association with the world-renowned Italian coachbuilder and design house which marks
its centenary this year.
Originally built to race against the might of Ferrari in the 1960’s, the DB4 GT Zagato has entered the annals of
Aston Martin history and is widely regarded as among the most beautiful and desirable sports cars ever
made.
The 2019 DB4 GT Zagato Continuation cars now going to the select group of owners of course stay true to
those original Zagato-bodied DB4 GTs produced by Aston Martin and Zagato in the 1960’s.
This latest continuation car follows the success of the 25 Aston Martin DB4 GT Continuation models that sold
to enthusiast collectors in 2017, and precedes what will perhaps be the most ambitious continuation to date:
the Aston Martin DB5 Goldfinger Edition cars that will come to market in 2020.
Andy Palmer, Aston Martin Lagonda President & Group CEO, said: “It has been our privilege and our pleasure
to work with Zagato in the creation of these remarkable sports cars. Now arriving in the hands of a tiny group
of owners across the world I’m sure they, like me, will be honoured to play their part in the history of this great
brand.”
Paul Spires, President of Aston Martin Works where each of the 19 Continuation cars are hand built, said:
“Christmas may be just around the corner now, but for 19 astute car collectors it is most definitely coming
early!
“The DB4 GT Zagato Continuation programme has been our most challenging and rewarding to date, and it is
a genuine honour to see the fruits of our not inconsiderable labours making their way to owners around the
globe.”
The DBZ Centenary Collection was priced at £6m, plus taxes. Deliveries of the Continuation car will continue
in 2019, while the DBS GT Zagato will arrive with customers in Q4 2020.
