About the Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato #1 24 Hours of Le Mans 1961 CMC 1:18

TL;DR: CMC's 1:18 diecast Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato reproduces the #1 Le Mans 1961 entry, with opening doors and bonnet. This used model comes with a box showing traces of storage, capturing the lightweight, Zagato-bodied variant Aston Martin built for genuine GT competition.

Pairing Aston Martin's chassis with Zagato's Italian coachbuilding produced one of the most celebrated British GT cars of the early 1960s, and this Le Mans entry captures that collaboration in genuine racing trim.

CMC's Multi-Part Construction on a Zagato-Bodied GT

CMC's diecast builds rely on a substantial number of separately fitted metal parts, and on this subject that shows in the double-bubble roof panels, the wire wheels and the louvred bonnet Zagato fitted to reduce weight further. The doors and bonnet open, exposing the straight-six engine and a cabin stripped for competition rather than road comfort. Race number one and the period livery are reproduced across the aluminium-look bodywork with crisp registration, and the finish captures the Zagato panels' distinctive curvature under a display lamp.

A British Chassis With Italian Lightweight Coachwork

Aston Martin commissioned Zagato to build lightweight bodies for a small run of DB4 GT chassis specifically to compete at the top level of GT racing, and the resulting cars proved genuinely quick against rivals from Ferrari and other manufacturers through the early 1960s. This particular entry ran at the 1961 Le Mans 24 Hours, one of the era's defining endurance events, giving the model a specific documented competition history rather than a generic racing livery. That British engineering paired with Italian lightweight construction is exactly the combination collectors of early 1960s GT racing look for.

A Used Le Mans Entry for a GT-Focused Display

This copy has been previously owned, and its box shows traces of storage rather than any concern about the casting itself. With opening doors and bonnet, checking both settle cleanly is worthwhile before permanent display. Placed among other early 1960s GT entries, this DB4 GT Zagato brings a genuinely significant chassis and livery combination to a Le Mans or GT-themed collection.
