Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato Heritage TWINS by R-REFORGED to Enter Limited Production

So far, the most interesting of Aston Martin’s limited production cars this year is not one car at all—it’s a set.

The name of the duo is lengthy, as it gives credit to all parties involved in the realizing of this English sports-lovers dream. The full name is the Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato Heritage TWINS by R-Reforged.

A syllabic mouthful, to be sure, but the name is comprehensive, as the cars are made in R-Reforged’s new facility in Warwick, the design comes by way of coachbuilder Zagato—with whom Aston has a long and storied history—and Aston provides the licensure for, one presumes, a rather sizable slice of the pie.

The foundation is the 2011 Aston Martin Vantage V12 Zagato, which Aston revealed at that year’s Villa D’Este Concours, and limited to 150 examples. The car has, in the space of a decade, achieved legendary status. But the Aston-Zagato relationship extends backward another half century, and that fact, too, is highlighted as homage by the TWINS.

Both coupe and roadster boast a tweaked V12 that produces 600 horsepower, and the body of each is made entirely from carbon fiber. The 19” alloy wheels specific to the edition and platinum and gold paint are other features of the cars. Production is limited to 19 sets.

Aston will reveal in-depth details about the cars this summer, when the first set formally debuts.
