1935 Mercedes Benz 500K Special Roadster 1:24

The Mercedes-Benz 500K (W29) is a grand touring car built by Mercedes-Benz between 1934 and 1936. First exhibited at the 1934 Berlin Motor Show, it carried the factory designation W29. Distinguished from the 500 sedan by the "K" for Kompressor (German for supercharger), only fitted to these performance cars, it succeeded the Mercedes-Benz 380 introduced just the previous year. It offered both a larger, more powerful engine and more opulent coachwork to meet customers' demands for greater luxury and performance.

The 500K used the same independent suspension as had been introduced on the 380, with a double wishbone front axle, double-joint swing axle at the rear, and separate wheel location, coil springs and damping, a world first. Consequently, it was a more comfortable and better handling car than Mercedes' previous S/SS/SSK generation of roadsters from the 1920s, and offered greater appeal to buyers, particularly the growing number of well-heeled female drivers of the time.

Pressing the throttle pedal fully engaged the Roots supercharger, inducing the five litre straight-eight engine to produce up to 160 horsepower (120 kW) and making the car capable of over 160 kilometres per hour (100 mph), while consuming fuel at the rate of up to 30 L/100 km (9.4 mpg‑imp; 7.8 mpg‑US) as it did so.

Three different chassis and eight bodies were available for customers; the two longer "B" and "C" four-seat cabriolet versions rode on a wheelbase of 3,290 mm (129.5 in), and would later be used on other sedan and touring car models. The short "A" chassis, with a 2,980 mm (117.3 in) wheelbase, underpinned the two-seater models: the Motorway Courier, and the 1936 Special Roadster which offered the highest performance. All models featured such advanced equipment as safety glass, hydraulic brakes, and a 12-volt electrical system sufficient to bear the load of the electric windscreen wipers, door locks, and indicators.

1987 Mercedes 190 E Burago 1:25 Made In Italy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

The Mercedes-Benz W201 was the internal designation for the Mercedes 190 series sedans, a range of front-engine, rear drive, five passenger, four-door sedans manufactured over a single generation, from 1982 to 1993 as the company's first compact class automobile.

Designed by Bruno Sacco, head of styling at Mercedes-Benz from 1975 to 1999, the W201 debuted at the 1982 Paris Motor show. Manufactured in both Bremen and Sindelfingen, Germany, production reached 1,879,629 over its eleven-year model life.

The W201 introduced a 5-link rear suspension subsequently used in E and C class models, front and rear anti-roll bars, anti-dive and anti-squat geometry—as well as airbags, ABS brakes and seatbelt pretensioners. Its extensive use of light-weight high-strength steel enabled it to withstand a concrete barrier offset crash at 35 mph (56 km/h) without serious passenger injury or cabin deformation.

Mercedes introduced a performance variant, marketed as the 190 E 2.3-16V, at the 1983 Frankfurt Motor Show.

1928 Mercedes Benz SSK Mille Miglia Burago 1:24

The Mercedes-Benz SSK (W06) is a roadster built by German automobile manufacturer Mercedes-Benz between 1928 and 1932. The name is an abbreviation of Super Sport Kurz, German for "Super Sport Short", as it was a short wheelbase development of the Mercedes-Benz Modell S. The SSK's extreme performance and numerous competitive successes made it one of the most highly regarded sports cars of its era.

The SSK was the last car designed for Mercedes-Benz by Ferdinand Porsche before he left to found his own company. The SSK is an evolution of the 1927 Modell S (S for Sport) which was based on the Modell K (K for "Kurzer Radstand" which means short wheelbase) variant of the Mercedes-Benz Typ 630. The SSK chassis was 19 inches (480 mm) shorter than the Modell S to make the car even lighter and more agile for racing, especially short races and hillclimbs.

Fitted with a supercharged single overhead camshaft 7-litre straight-6 engine producing 200–300 metric horsepower (150–220 kW) and over 500 lb⋅ft (680 N⋅m) of torque (depending on the state of tune), the SSK had a top speed of up to 120 miles per hour (190 km/h), making it the fastest car of its day. The supercharger on the SSK's engine was operated by a clutch that was engaged by fully depressing the throttle pedal and then giving the pedal an extra push. Backing off the throttle pedal disengaged the supercharger clutch.

2015 Mercedes AMG-GT Maisto 1:18

El Mercedes-AMG GT (C190/R190) es un automóvil deportivo Gran Turismo de 2 puertas biplaza, con motor central-delantero montado longitudinalmente y de propulsión trasera o total, desarrollado y producido por el fabricante alemán Mercedes-AMG, filial de Mercedes-Benz Daimler AG, desde 2015.

El GT es la variante de entrada. La pieza central es el nuevo V8 biturbo con designación interna M178 de 3982 cm³ (4 litros) desarrollado específicamente para el GT, que responde instantáneamente con una potencia extrema desde bajas revoluciones y ofrece un rendimiento excepcional. Cifras máximas como de cero a 100 km/h (62 mph) en 3,8 segundos y una velocidad máxima de 310 km/h (193 mph), combinadas con la extraordinaria dinámica de conducción, se traducirán en vueltas extremadamente rápidas en la pista. Desarrolla una potencia máxima de 462 CV (456 HP; 340 kW) y ruedas de 19 pulgadas (48,3 cm).

Los insertos del difusor negro con tubos de escape integrados en el parachoques y la moldura en plata iridio mate inspirada en el alerón A en la parte delantera, crean una sensación visual de ligereza en todo el extremo trasero. Las luces traseras anchas y planas con nuevas señales de giro secuenciales. reflejan la tecnología más avanzada. Las 18 luces LED individuales en cada lado, indican al conductor hacia dónde tiene la intención de girar, iluminándolos secuencialmente desde el interior hacia el exterior. Las luces traseras subrayan tanto el estilo deportivo de la parte trasera, como la atención al detalle y la sofisticación.

El diseño interior también tienen proporciones deportivas radicalmente bajas que crean una sensación de amplitud. Los componentes y sus materiales auténticos subrayan el carácter dinámico y crean interacción entre el panel de instrumentos profundo e inclinado y una consola central alta. El tema central del "diseño de aviación" ha sido rediseñado, el cual cuenta con cuatro rejillas de ventilación centrales estilo foco y las rejillas de ventilación individuales en los extremos derecho e izquierdo del tablero, que junto con las líneas de cintura altas, los paneles de las puertas de forma cóncava y la consola central dinámica, integran al conductor en el habitáculo gracias a la posición baja del asiento.

1962 Mercedes Benz 220 SE Matchbox 1:64

The Mercedes-Benz W111 was a chassis code given to a range of Mercedes-Benz vehicles produced between 1959 and 1971, including four-door saloons (1959-1968) and two-door coupés and cabriolets (1961 to 1971). Their bodywork featured distinctive tailfins that gave the models their Heckflosse nickname — German for "fintail".

Introduced with a 2.2-litre inline 6-cylinder engine, the W111 spawned a pair of variant lines which bracketed it in 1961: downscale entry-level inline 4-cylinder engined vehicles sharing the W111 chassis and bodies, designated the W110; and the W112, a high-end luxury saloon built on the W111 chassis with its body but exclusive features, elaborate appointments, and the Mercedes-Benz 300d Adenauer's fuel-injected 3-litre M189 six-cylinder engine – at the time the company's largest.

Somewhat confusingly, both the W111 and W112 lines included vehicles with different Paul Bracq-designed bodywork, the 2-door coupé and cabriolet.
