The London Motor Show, Earls Court of 1960 introduced the most beautiful cars and the most significant Aston Martin. Each DB4GT rolling chassis were sent to the Zagato factory in Milan to be clothed in the lightweight body designed by the young Ercole Spada. The Zagato was given an even more powerful engine than the standard GT by using a higher 9.7:1 compression ratio. This was able to produce a quoted 314bhp. Needless to say that the performance was and still is very impressive, with a top speed of 153mph and 0 to 60 acceleration in 6.1 seconds.
