24 carat Aston Martin

The day after Quantum of Solace premieres in London, Alchemist will showcase its one-off Aston Martin at MPH The Prestige Motor Show featuring Top Gear Live at London’s Earls Court, where the supercar will be auctioned Sunday Nov. 2 at 6 pm.   The estimated price is an eye watering £ 500,000.

And with seven diamonds embedded in the bodywork, it is sure to be a jewel among the 200 supercars on display. This car owned by Prince Francesco Ruspoli.

Alchemist’s creative director and modern day ‘Goldfinger’, Jacques Blanc, said: “This is a truly unique car. Tutankhamen’s chariot was decorated with gold leaves. And we have simply brought that ancient and opulent tradition into the 21st century.”

MPH The Prestige and Performance Motor Show featuring Top Gear Live at London’s Earls Court runs from 30 October to 2 November.
