Ugo Zagato was born in 1890 in Gavello, near Bologna. After starting out in the metallurgical industry in Germany, in 1915 he joined the Pomilio aeronautical workshops in Turin. In 1919, he founded Carrozzeria Ugo Zagato & Co., in Milan, bringing aeronautical techniques to the automobile: lightweight structures and aerodynamics. Its bodies, used on Alfa Romeo, Fiat, MG, MG, Abarth, Ferrari and others, are distinguished by their performance and elegance. During the 1930s, they won 8 Mille Miglia, 4 Targa Florio and 4 editions of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, affirming the Zagato signature on European circuits.

For twenty years, Porsche has been paving the way for its Heritage Design program, a 911 collection that highlights the great years of the brand. The Targa 4S Heritage Design Edition opened the ball with a tribute to the years 1950—60, followed by the Sport Classic and its double boss that revived the spirit of the seventies, then the Classic Club Coupe designed with Porsche USA. Today, the saga continues with the 911 Spirit 70, the third chapter in this story and limited to 1,500 copies. Not a timid evocation, but an assumed reinterpretation of the 70s in a contemporary 911, designed to combine heritage and modernity.
Buying or selling a luxury car should always be a source of excitement, never a constraint. However, the reality is often made up of tedious administrative procedures, endless searches, and uncertainties around the condition or history of a vehicle. It is precisely to eliminate these obstacles that Carsup designed its trading service: a fluid, comprehensive and rigorous support, where every detail is taken care of.
But what could have happened to the management of Renault? A few years ago, the diamond brand did not hesitate to do a few crazy things, especially with its Renault Sport branch. We could mention, among others, the R5 Turbo, R8 Gordini, R8 Gordini, Renault Spider, Clio V6, Renault RS 01 and much more! But since the suspension of the sports branch in favor of Alpine, Renault seemed to rather be heading for a 100% electric future by focusing on city cars and SUVs as standard. It seems that the brand likes to surprise us, which reveals a car straight out of video games: the R5 Turbo 3E.
