Celebrating 70 years of the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL ‘Gullwing’ - Seven decades of poise and performance. Introduced in 1954 at the New York Auto Show, the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL was born from Max Hoffman’s vision to captivate the American market. With a top speed of 135 mph, 0–60 in 8.8 seconds, and pioneering fuel injection that boosted output to 212 bhp, it became the fastest production car of its time and an instant icon, celebrated for its distinctive ‘gull wing’ doors. This 1:8 scale model has been meticulously handcrafted with the co-operation of Mercedes, using original finishes, materials, archive imagery and digital scans of the car to capture every detail with absolute accuracy.
