David Brown’s Latest Speedback Silverstone Edition Took Over 8,000 Hours To Build

David Brown Automotive has just completed work on the latest example of its limited-run Speedback Silverstone Edition.
The Speedback Silverstone Edition in question was built for a customer in Asia and apparently took over 8,000 hours to hand build. It is painted in Black Metallic and finishing it in this shade alone is said to have taken over 8 weeks. Contrasting the paint is milled aluminum brightwork that’s chrome-plated and hand-brushed.
Extensive time was also spent on the interior of the car. The customer ordered their Speedback with heated and cooled seats clad in hand-trimmed Oyster leather. Also found within are various open-pore wood elements in the dashboard and door cards, as well as aluminum Union Jack and Silverstone Edition inlays. Various pieces of brushed chrome metalwork also catch the eye.
