Limited production cars are usually reserved for a special occasion, maybe an anniversary or to celebrate a partnership with another brand. As purveyors of temporary car showrooms of distinction, Spaciotempo has compiled this mouthwatering list of \u2018temporary\u2019 cars to celebrate some of the most unique limited production cars ever to hit the streets.1. Bentley Continental GT Speed Brietling Jet Team SeriesWith only seven Bentley Continental GT Speed\u2019s manufactured in 2015, they are one of the most exclusive limited production cars in the world. One of the most stylish and elusive relationships in the world, the seven Bentley\u2019s were created to celebrate a new relationship between Bentley and the Breitling Jet Team. Each car was individually numbered to correspond with each of the seven Breitling Jets.2. Lamborghini VenenoFrom one luxury car manufacturer to another, the Lamborghini Veneno was launched in 2013 to celebrate the brand\u2019s 50th anniversary. Even more limited than the Bentley Continental GT Speed, only 5 Lamborghini Veneno cars were produced.3. Nissan Gold LeafTo celebrate the 2016 Rio Olympic and Paralympic Games, Nissan created the \u201cgold leaf\u201d. A car wrapped in gold, to be given as a reward for Team GB\u2019s champion athletes. The cars were awarded to gymnast Max Whitlock, who broke world records and rower, George Nash. The car was also gifted to Paralympians Richard Whitehead MBE and swimmer Matt Wylie.4. Barbie Fiat 500In 2009, Barbie turned 35. In order to celebrate, Barbie teamed up with Fiat, to create a special edition Fiat 500. The car featured gleaming pink paintwork, with an LED vanity mirror, diamante dials and pink interior. The car was created as a one-off show car.5. Pop Art BentleySir Peter Blake, renowned pop art artist teamed up with Bentley in 2016 to create the Pop Art Bentley, auctioned at \u00a3250,000. The money raised was donated to the Care2Save Charitable Trust.6. Volkswagen Polo HarlequinStaying on the colourful theme, we move onto the Volkswagen Polo Harlequinn that was released in 1995. This bright little automotive was a lot more successful than the manufacturers anticipated and they ended up selling 4,000 models, four times more than what they originally anticipated.7. VB EvoqueSlightly classier than our previous car is the limited-edition Victoria Beckham Evoque. Beckham was given the title of creative design executive and in turn created an uber stylish Range Rover featuring hand-finished matt paint, 20-inch alloy wheels and rose gold plated accents. The car also featured an \u00a380,000 price tag.8. Aston Martin DB9 Bond EditionTo celebrate the release of latest Bond film, Spectre, Aston Martin created a DB9 version of the car Daniel Craig drives in the movie. Complete with \u2018Spectre silver paint\u2019 this car is sure to turn a few heads.9. Citroen Bond 2CVAston Martin wasn\u2019t the first car manufacturer to capitalise on the Bond franchise. Following the release of For Your Eyes Only, Citroen released a special edition 007 2CV, complete with stick on bullet holes. Personally, we know which one we would prefer.10. Jeremy Scott’s Smart ForTwoOne of our favourites on the list is the nippy Smart car, complete with wings. The collaboration between Jeremy Scott and Smart brought an electrifying result that ventured into unchartered territories and challenged the status quo. Personally, we love it.11. Jeep Renegade Dawn of JusticeBatman vs Superman was a hotly anticipated film and in order to celebrate, Jeep created the Dawn of Justice, special edition Renegade, complete with unique badging.12. Mona Lisa Volkswagen BeetleMona Lisa is the most iconic painting in the world and the Volkswagen Beetle is arguably also equally as iconic. So, it almost makes sense for Volkswagen to transfer Mona Lisa\u2019s face onto the side of their car. A pretty brave decision, we aren\u2019t completely sold on the idea.13. Fiat Kung-Fu PandaThe Fiat Kung Fu Panda tops our chart for the funniest special edition car. Reveled at the Geneva motor show, the car comes complete with Panda headrests. Genius.14. Skoda Yeti IceOne of the more unusual limited edition cars is the Skoda Yeti Ice, which comes complete with a faux fur finish. Dr Yu Ciddingme explains: \u201cThe fur is so thick and luxurious that during our tests in the arctic circle, our test drivers didn\u2019t need to use the heater.\u201d15. Aston Martin V12 Vantage S ‘Spitfire 80’Heading back to the supercars, the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S was launched in celebration of the 80th anniversary of the legendary Spitfire fight plane\u2019s first flight. Only 80 models were made.16. Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe Waterspeed CollectionIn 2014, Rolls-Royce celebrated Sir Malcolm Campbell\u2019s 1937 world water-speed record with specially designed Phantom Drophead Coupes. There were only 35 created, powered by a Rolls-Royce R-Engine.17. Maserati Granturismo Sport Special EditionAt the 2017 Geneva Motor Show, Maserati presented their special edition GranTurismo and GranCabrio models. There were only 400 models made, complete with Rosso Italiano three-layer paint.18.

The BMW is finished in Protonic Red, with Frozen Grey metallic accents.19. Jeep’s 75th Anniversary RangeIn 2016, Jeep launched the limited edition 75th\u00a0Anniversary version of their range of SUV\u2019s. The special range of cars celebrated the milestone with exclusive branding, unique styling details and colours and a plethora of options.20. Mazda MX-5 25th Anniversary Limited EditionMazda recently celebrated its 25th birthday and to celebrate, released 750 examples of the special 2.0 litre MX-5. Priced at a reasonable \u00a322,995."},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Blog","item":"https:\/\/smart-motoring.com\/blog\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Most exclusive limited edition cars ever built","item":"https:\/\/smart-motoring.com\/blog\/exclusive-limited-edition-cars\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
