Supercars to get the midas touch
London-based firm, Alchemist, will be showcasing its luxury car customisation service at this year’s MPH show featuring Top Gear Live.
The artisan company specialises in applying a lustrous coat of 24-carat gold to the roof of any car, using an innovative new patented process to cover a car’s roof with the purest gold leaf. Prices start at £12,500.
Alchemist director Jacques Blanc commented: “Gold-leafing vehicles isn’t a new luxury. The Egyptians mastered the technique more than 3000 years ago and Tutankhamun’s chariot was decorated with gold leaves. We are simply continuing this ancient and opulent tradition.”
