  • 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.

      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.
