This is the 1954 Mercedes Benz 300 SL Graphite Grey in 1:12 scale by Norev.
The 1954 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL was a groundbreaking sports car that set new standards in both performance and design. Unlike its competitors, it featured innovative gullwing doors, a necessity due to its lightweight tubular space frame, which was both rigid and remarkably light. It was also the first production car to feature fuel injection, boosting its 3.0L straight-six engine to an impressive 215 horsepower, allowing for a top speed of 160 mph—making it the fastest production car of its time. With its sleek, aerodynamic shape inspired by Mercedes’ Le Mans-winning race cars, the 300 SL was not just a car but a technological marvel, blending speed, engineering brilliance, and iconic design in a way that few cars ever have.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
