Luxury British car maker Aston Martin has teamed up with British Airways to launch a special Concorde-themed car.
The DBS Superleggera Concorde Edition has gone on sale today (November 26) - the anniversary of the supersonic passenger liner's final flight into Bristol in 2003.
The car has been commissioned by Dick Lovett dealership Aston Martin Bristol and costs a whopping £321,350.
Only ten are being sold and they will be manufactured by the Aston Martin Q department and will be ready for delivery in October, according to Business Live.
The car will have BA's Speedmarque logo as a chrome badge on the fender and a bespoke painted livery in BA colours on the roof strakes.
Each one will also have an inspection plaque signed by BA’s chairman Alex Cruz and Dr Andy Palmer, Aston Martin’s chief exec.
Aaron Allnutt, dealer principal at Aston Martin Bristol, said: "The Filton runway sits just opposite from our workshop doors, and we are neighbours with Aerospace, the home of the Bristol Concorde.
"So we are honoured and delighted to showcase this upcoming vehicle as a nod towards the BA Concorde heritage here in Bristol.”
"BA Concorde and Aston Martin both represent the very best in British transport and design - so this timely collaboration allows us at Aston Martin Bristol to be part of the Concorde history in Britain."
The DBS Superleggera Concorde Edition's interior will use reclaimed solid metal from Concorde, will have a Concorde silhouette for the side strake and Civil Aviation Authority-approved registrations.
"The car design will be the best of automotive and aviation design combined," added Aaron.
British Airways is celebrating its 100th birthday this year and it is 50 years since Concorde's first flight.
