The news that Zagato has no official involvement in the Fiat 500 Elaborata project by Scagliarini comes as no surprise to us. In a statement released today Zagato says:
“In relation to the Scagliarini 504 Coupé Zagato Elaborata project, the Zagato brand wishes to clarify that it has never been involved in this initiative; nor has it authorised Scagliarini Motorsport to use its intellectual property in reference to the Fiat 500 Coupé Zagato project or has Zagato provided any technical assistance to build the vehicle. Zagato has never authorised the use of its brand, contrary to what appears in the pictures released by Scagliarini Motorsport.”
The images of the Scagliarini project are of a one-off model commissioned by a customer and apparently with the same bodywork as seen on the original Zagato Coupé at the Geneva show. We get the feeling there could be a law suit pending here….
