This is the new Lamborghini 5-95 Zagato, a special one-off edition of the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 which has been rebodied by Italian coachbuilder Zagato.

Unveiled at last weekend's Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este in Italy, the new car has been designed to celebrate 95 years of the Italian coachbuilder.

Although it's based on the now-redundant Gallardo -- the most popular model Lamborghini has ever built -- the new car is one of the most exclusive models ever to come from the company, featuring a bespoke body which includes a double-bubble roof and a floating rear bumper inspired by the 1996 Lamborghini Raptor Zagato.

Mechanically, the 5-95 Zagato is identical to the standard Gallardo, which means a 570bhp 5.2-litre V10 engine, giving a 0-62mph time of 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 202mph.

The car was commissioned by Albert Spiess, one of the world's most prominent Lambo collectors. He said: "I always appreciated the ability of Zagato to create timeless lines with a forceful visual impact. The 5-95 will be a fundamental piece of my collection."
