Default 1988/89 Aston Martin Vantage Zagato Volante

My friend was trying to persude me to return yesterday, i'm still undecided, but for now, I saw this today.
I might be able to get a photoshoot next weekend, but he'd just parked it up when I caught up with him, and wasnt getting it out again, but a really nice guy. (engine sounded gorgeous... and i spent 20 minutes trying to find this car once it gone the other way while i was driving! (my racing clutch wasnt liking the slow speed of trying to look for a rare car )

its car number 18 of 30 Zagato Volante's made (originally 25, but made 30 in the end), also capable of 300kmh (186mph), which i think is pretty ok for a 1988/89 car of that size

I saw only one (Coupé) at Coys London.

I don't like this car, but nice catch, rare...

Some guys in another forum actually pointed out this is a Zagato Volante "Cosmetic Vantage Conversion".. even more ultra rare!

sounds cool, and special!
do you know what the differences are? is it just the headlamps and grille? I read about that change at work today, but not in detail...
