Tag: Vanquish Centenary Edition

2013 is the year in which Aston Martin marks 100 years of power, beauty and soul. We have already seen a vehicle which was released to mark this special anniversary which carries the name Vanquish Centenary Edition.

The celebration of the brand’s birthday continues and it has just released a very special video showing how the Anniversary model “conquers” the Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai. The footage is indeed spectacular and brings forth many feelings and aspirations.

Thanks to this exclusive centenary event, which was attended by UAE dignitaries and Aston Martin CEO Dr Ulrich Bez, the New Vanquish reached new heights, lifted to the helipad of one of the most famous buildings in the world.

The vehicle will be produced in only hundred examples worldwide and will feature one-of-a-kind graduated paint finish, solid sterling silver wing badges with tailored ‘trans flux’ enamel inlay and a special hallmark.

A synonym of the name of the brand of course is “luxury”. We can see it not only outside, but inside as well. In these terms the interior of the car includes Deep Soft black leather with perfect contrasting silver stitching. In addition, special silver thread embroidery of the Aston Martin wings in the head restraints and solid sterling silver sill plaques individually numbered with an Aston Martin hallmark are among the unique features of the car.

Aston Martin Vanquish Centenary Edition is a very special vehicle. First of all – it comes to mark the start of the birthday of the brand. And secondly, because it will be available worldwide on just 100 examples of each of the car maker’s model lines: V8 Vantage, DB9, Rapide and Vanquish.

To go further into details the car includes unique graduated paint finish, solid sterling silver Aston Martin wing badges with tailored ‘trans flux’ enamel inlay and a special Aston Martin hallmark. In short, the exterior represents an exclusive celebration of the company’s 100-year history.

The process of creating the astonishing paint finish added an average of 18 hours to a paint process. This means that it took more than 50 hours to complete. The unique graduated finish is meticulously built by adding special ‘tinters’ to create the darker inner colour. This custom-made mixture is then applied to each panel by hand, utilizing a special mini-jet spray gun.

Furthermore, the interior of the car is more luxurious than one can imagine. Deep Soft black leather has been used and in addition, to make it even more perfect contrasting silver stitching has been added. What is more – special silver thread embroidery of the Aston Martin wings in the head restraints and solid sterling silver sill plaques individually numbered with an Aston Martin hallmark are among the features one-of-a-kind to the car.

To make it even more individual, each Centenary Edition model will also come with unique presentation box. The latter will feature some special gifts especially made for the anniversary: two glass keys, two bespoke key pouches made from leather, solid silver cufflinks, solid silver Rollerball pen and high quality Bang & Olufsen headphones.
