The latest creation resulting from the marque's historic alliance with Zagato, is a decidedly original interpretation of a classic.

Auction entries : 1Up front, the Vanquish Roadster retains the face of the coupe now associated with James Bond, but to the rear, this car is entirely new: it has a round light cluster and a tapered tail.Designed to adapt to season, the Vanquish Roadster introduces a functional modular cover system. In winter, a hardtop becomes an integral part of the car. On warmer days, this hardtop is replaced by transparent hardened glass and a soft cover. Developed by Zagato's engineers, this soft cover is easily and simply mounted and, when not in use, is held in the luggage compartment. The hardened glass, with its curvy 'double bubble' form, emphasizes the relationship between the sold and void.The interior trim is exclusive in its design and seaming. A luggage compartment immediately behind the seats can also be seen through the glass cover.

Zagato and Aston Martin: a strong alliance that goes back to the 60s with the legendary DB4 GTZ, continued in the 80s with the Vantage and Volante, and is now firmer than ever in the new millennium with the DB7 Zagato and American Roadster 1.

Auction entries : 1These are the cult cars of collectors and enthusiasts, always prime examples of the 'instant classic'.At this year's Geneva Motor Show, Zagato is presenting the Roadster version of the Aston Martin Vanquish, partly leaving unchanged the original project. For the first time, this Milan workshop is not giving an entirely new look to the production model, but is offering an interesting variation of the Vanquish, introducing innovative, futuristic touches of style.While the Aston Martin DB7 Zagato and AR1 were initially presented to customers in the form of a limited edition, immediately sold out, the Vanquish Roadster is a 'provocation' proposed by Zagato with the backing of Aston Martin itself.

Auction entries : 1Close cooperation between Nori Harada, Zagato's Automotive Chief Designer, and Peter Hutchinson, Design Manager at Aston Martin, has resulted in this new car introducing elements that are a sharp break with the Roadster segment.A decidedly original interpretation that combines the totally unique design of the rear with the introduction of a functional modular cover system.
A hard top for winter, developed to not appear as an add-on but as an integral part that also takes in the rear. On warmer days of the year, its place is taken by a transparent hardened glass and an easily used soft cover. Developed by Zagato's engineers, this soft top is easily and simply mounted and, when not in use, is held in the luggage compartment without taking up much space.The car has a round rear light cluster, a tapered tail to best feature the wheelbox and a completely new rear bumper. The hardened glass, with its curvy ‘double bubble' form, emphasises how unique and valued is this proposal, balancing in a different, almost extravagant way, the relationship between the solid and void. Special care has been applied to the interior trim, made exclusive by the design and type of seaming introduced.
A luggage compartment immediately behind the seats can also be seen through the glass cover.At the front, the Vanquish Roadster proposal retains the design of the coupe version famous for being James Bond's most recent car.Source - Zagato / Aston Martin

Playing a huge role in returning Aston Martin, a classic British carmaker, to both financial success and technological sophistication, the Vanquish surely delivered. Like any proper Aston Martin, the Vanquish not only had drop-dead gorgeous styling, but also a certain spice with muscular fenders and a wide, squat stance.
