Zagato has announced plans to build two bespoke Aston Martins to celebrate the British marques 100th anniversary.

To start off, it will be the DBS Coupe Zagato Centennial that will inherit the Aston Martin DNA alongwith some Italian finesse and Milanese inspiration. The front facia of this DBS Coupe Zagato is without doubt stylish with a prominent grille and retro-styled headlamps. 

There's also a double bubble roof, a distinctive rear end and a unique greenhouse. The one-off model will be delivered to an unnamed young and prestigious Japanese entrepreneur. 

Then there is the DB9 Spyder Zagato Centennial, which was built for American car collector Peter Read, who in fact also owns a DB7 Zagato. The DB9 Spyders styling mimics the coupes but the hardtop gets replaced by a more conventional canvas roof.

According to Read, “The DB9 Spyder Zagato Centennial perfectly merges Aston Martin and Zagato’s DNA by combining the elegance of design, typical of Zagato, with the soul, power and prestige of Aston Martin, all developed over the last 100 years. This car personifies the timelessness of the Aston Martin/Zagato marquee.”
