Evanta DB4 GT Zagato
Yes, you're right, but I have only one easy question: what is the basis of this car?

You are right. Good job!
Evanta Motor Company from UK converted an Aston Martin DB7 V12 into a DB4 GT Zagato.

To be pedantic should the word "replica" feature somewhere.  

The car is either
(a) An Aston Martin DB7 rebodied by Zagato in the style of the DB4 GT Zagato.  In which case it would be a DB7 Zagato, the fact thatit mirrors the DBA GT is immaterial
or it is
(b) An Aston Martin DB7 rebodied by Evanta in the style of a DB4 GT Zagato.  In which case it is a DB 4 GT Zagato Replica by Evanta

But it is not a DB4 GT Zagato

Indeed it is. I choose option (b). ;)
It will be correct to call the car, using the word "Replica".
