Two new Aston Martin Zagatos will be unveiled for the first time, having competed at the Nurburgring 24 hour race.

The V12 Zagato is based on the V12 Vantage and features Aston’s 6.0-litre V12, tuned to produce 510bhp and 420lb-ft of torque.

The car is now being offered for sale at £330,000 and will be sold in a limited production run of 150 cars beginning next summer.

The first of the cars, nicknamed 'Zig', is an endurance racer with a front splitter, diffuser and spoiler developed to help the car achieve its best at the Nürburgring. The second, named 'Zag' is the car that was revealed to the public at the Villa D'Este Concours in Italy in May. Having competed at the 'Ring, it has now been converted back to original showroom specification.

The cars will be on Aston Martin's stand at the Frankfurt Motor Show next month.
