The ingot is engraved with three key design lines of Ghost and the plaque details its significant origins. The Collection's own Spirit of Ecstasy and clock are engraved with the name - Zenith edition.

The swan song for the Ghost also features an engraving of a blueprint-like work on each of the 50 Zenith editions that have been enlarged to a point of abstraction and will be split into 50 parts for each of the limited editions models.

The uber luxurious saloon will also come with perforated leather that will be applied to the door panels along with illuminated door pockets, while there will be various types of wood trims on offer inside the lavish cabin.
