Description

2016 Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato - #16 of 99

Offered to market for the first time, this stunning, tastefully specified Vanquish Zagato.

Over the last 24 months, we’ve experienced a surge in demand for the famed 1st generation Gaydon, VH platform, Aston Martins. Arguably, being the ‘last of the line’, the Vanquish Zagato represents the peak of this production era.

The body; designed collaboratively by Aston Martin and famed Italian stylists, Zagato and clothed entirely in Carbon Fibre, incorporating iconic Zagato styling cues, including the ‘double bubble’ roof, front grille and bladed LED lights.

The chassis; Utilising Aston Martin’s most capable VH chassis, the Vanquish S, developed and refined over a 10+ year production era, including Carbon Ceramic brakes and adaptive damping.

The engine; The most powerful, 2017 model year, Vanquish S specification Aston Martin normally aspirated V12 engine, delivering 595bhp, via the 8-speed, ZF ‘Touchtronic III’ gearbox.

The interior; The timeless interior design language of this famed era of Aston Martin, finished in the highest quality materials with distinctive Zagato touches. Evolved fascia design and infotainment system. Bang & Olufsen audio and Car Play enable.

Combined, an entirely capable, head turning Aston Martin rarity, with performance in abundance. 0-60mph in 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 200mph. Refinement and docility, when required.

The attractive example we now offer for sale was first supplied by Aston Martin Sevenoaks in December 2016 to its sole owner. Used sparingly and maintained, without compromise, by Aston Martin main agents.

Finished in Lava Red over Obsidian Black hides, with contrast Spicy Red stitching. We particularly admire the careful consideration to the specification; (Silver) diamond turned alloy wheels, chrome side strakes and chrome exhaust tail pipe finishers and ‘Q’ designed Alcantara interior trim finishing. A full Build specification is available on request.

The value proposition:

When considering a purchase at this price level, a clear financial case alone for Vanquish Zagato ownership emerges.

A new, unlimited in production, DB12, equipped with the AMG derived 4 litre V8 turbo engine, commonly costs in the area of £250k, inclusive of its mostly obligatory options, historically will depreciate in value by at least 35% during the first 12 months of ownership and will further depreciate as the years roll by.

The Vanquish Zagato however, equipped with Aston Martin’s normally aspirated V12 engine, was limited to just 99 examples with just 32 in UK RHD specifications.

We surmise, that at the price level of this example, now 10 years old with just 2,200 miles covered by 1 owner, has in all probability become fully depreciated from its launch price of in excess of £500k.

The Vanquish Zagato offers an excellent prospect of retaining its value in the future, whilst providing the new owner with a very rare, exciting to drive and highly attractive, collector grade Aston Martin, to enjoy and feel at ease with, from a financial perspective.

As the industry moves toward turbocharging and hybridisation, the demand for Aston’s final naturally aspirated V12’s continues to surge. A Bona fide case for investment potential.

Supplied with an extensive history folder that includes original Sales invoice, Service and maintenance invoices and MOT certificates. Accompanied by a custom fit Zagato car cover, Vanquish key box, full complement of keys, owner’s manual, model relevant cherished registration number.

Previously featured in Vantage and Evo Magazines (Copies of which are included with the car), in immaculate, ‘as new’ condition, the paintwork protected by PPF and supplied to our usual highest standards, including its next scheduled service, 12 months MOT and 12 months warranty.
