Aston Martin launches Centenary Editions of DB9, Vantage, Vanquish & Rapide

Aston Martin celebrates its centenary with Centenary Edition versions of their entire range featuring special paint finish and bespoke interiors.

One hundred years ago today, Aston Martin arrived as Bamford & Martin as Lionel Martin and Robert Bamford formed the company which would, just a year later, become Aston Martin, and to celebrate the centenary Aston Martin is creating 100 Centenary Editions of each of its model range (although not, it seems, the Cygnet).

All the centenary Edition cars (V8 Vantage, DB9, Rapide and Vanquish) will feature a unique graduated paint finish and get adorned with solid sterling silver wing badges (don’t park your Centenary Edition Aston Martin in a public car park with the current price of silver) with tailored ‘Trans Flux’ enamel inlay.

Inside, Aston Martin is trimming the Centenary Edition models with Deep Soft black leather – which has only previously been available on the One-77 – with silver stitching, silver embroidered Aston Martin wings on the head rests and silver numbered sill plaques.

Although Aston Martin has told us that their entire range will offer a Centenary Edition, it seems they’ve only managed to Photoshop the Vanquish Centenary Edition so far, so that’s all the photos we have.

But just because it looks so good, we’ve published a photo gallery of the Aston Martin DB4 Zagato below so you can remember the sort of cars that helped Aston Martin to a century of beautiful cars (and there are more Aston Martin photos in our Aston Martin Photo Galleries).
