FIRST LOOK: Zagato AGTZ Twin Tail - £650k Coachbuilt Alpine A110!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
This is the Alpine A110 - but as you’ve never seen it before. It’s the result of a collaboration between famed Italian coachbuilder Zagato (who will fabricate the AGTZ in its Milan atelier) and ambitious Polish high-end car dealer La Squadra (whose idea this project was).
La Squadra will also handle all the sales and marketing, and if you’ve not heard of them, the group has Bugatti, Koenigsegg, Maserati and Pagani dealerships - plus Alpine of course - while Ferrari selected it as its top dealer worldwide in 2022.
Back to the AGTZ Twin Tail, and the clue is in the name. Spring for one of these and you’ll get yourself a car with not one but two different rear bodywork configurations - a short tail and a long one. Every panel is bespoke, and the Twin Tail’s body is made entirely of carbon fibre. Just 19 will be built, at well over half a million pounds each.
Top Gear Magazine’s Tom Ford is your guide to this stunning, motorsport-inspired limited edition…

I think the front is good (though the livery maybe doesn't do it any favours) but personally I'm not a fan of longtails generally in terms of looks.
Why is this giving me such Burnout vibes, especially without the longtail?

8:23 : Oh look , its an Alpine giving birth to a middle aged man !
What an awesome build and another great video Tom, keep up the great work and when are you getting one :)
Side profile gives-off some Jag’ XJ220 vibes, especially with those wheels…
The head designer explains everything about twin tail concepts.
I love Zagato designs.
Those Alpine’s look beautiful 😍
One of my favs by Zagato, the Alfa TZ3 Stradale Zagato. That V10 sounds so good
Norihiko really took the "Head Designer" title to heart.
0:41 I'd take that DB4 any day of the week. One of the best looking cars ever made.
Very cool design from Zagato! Maybe next time we will see a car that can actively change its shape between long tail and short tail without removing parts. Essentially a production version of what Mercedes did on that IAA concept.
That A220 Race Car is stunning
Three Automotive Names for me standout. Aston Martin, Lancia and Zagato. Zagato have designed some of the Most Beautiful Lancia and Aston Martins, ever made.
This is a very cool good looking car.
So glad the Top Gear have got Wookie doing his videos. Instant watch, was always a fav presenter in the Fifth Gear days
Speed racer is alive and finally available for day to day driving.
Wookie is by far the best, and most informed presenter/motoring journalist on TG right now.
I want those wheels for my 86👌🏾

100% agree. I’m not very familiar with Zagato works but from what was shown in the video, their designs might be an acquired taste? Reminds me of when you see a supermodel on a runway wearing ridiculous clothes because of some loony designers ideas.

Without the tail on it has a very similar shape from memory to the Marussia B2
What's happening at 08:59? Is water leaking in?? 😮
I think it needs a little more width to balance out the length
Could someone enlighten me about the blue car in the first shots? It is absolutely beautiful!!
All it needs now is a V8 and manual box.

If I have a number of cars and the money I would definitely have one in my collection. Looks smart.
I like the front view. Not sure about the back.
Fantastic design and backstory!
These cars are worth as what they are is because it’s custom hand built and they use the best materials .
"mom i want a mclaren speedtail" "we have a mclaren speedtail at home"
Even the logos look similar, they could have encorporated them together cleverly somehow.

I think they could've done a better job with that side fender vent. It looks way too angular for a car that's supposed to be as slippery as possible at speed.
Zagato always makes some interesting stuff
Fun fact:- Zagato is named for Ugo Zagato a famous Automotive designer, active during the first halfof the 20th century, but is also Italian for "As UGLY as possible"

There’s absolutely nothing ugly about the Zagato cars that came out in the 50’s to 70’s
Looks light a Porsche on the front and a Mclarin speedtail from behind 😂
Parked against the older Alpine it doesnt have a low nose at all. Ill take the older one. Looks way better.
Sorta looks like a newer version of Richard Petty's Superbird. 🤔
Zagato have re dressed some cars very well, this thing got 90's Hyundai hand downs
How much!!!
Needs wider set of rims
change the headlights and its would be sexy
hp ?
The car that requires middle finger to unlock door.
So what happens to the exhaust when youre idling with the long tail on?

The long tail has a gap to let fumes flow normally
I’d take this, sell it and buy an A110 and keep the change.
O wow the Japanese designer literally looks like an anime character.

At first i though it was an alpine a110
Have they fitted a bespoke V8 or something for €650,000?
Looks like an XL1
Looks like a Saturn EV1 electric car.
