Aston Martin V12 Zagato (2011) unveiled at Villa d'Este

Aston Martin today unveiled the new 2011 V12 Zagato, a V12 Vantage supercar rebodied by Italian coachbuilder Zagato. We saw the first design sketch a few weeks ago, designed to mark the 50th anniversary of the gorgeous DB4 GT Zagato of 1961. Now Aston Martin and Zagato are unveiling the new V12 at this weekend's Villa D'Este concours in Italy.

BMW to offer rear-wheel drive X3 SUV

You'll be able to get your hands on one from £28,580 when it arrives in the UK in the autumn of 2012.
