Description

MERCEDES-BENZ 300 SLR COUPE 1955 #15 RUDOLF UHLENHAUT GRAND PRIX DE SUEDE 1955 - Edition Limitée à 1000 pièces. When Rudolf Uhlenhaut, the architect of the 300 SLR racer, was at the 1955 Mille Miglia to watch Mercedes’ success, he was also mulling over the idea of fitting the 300 SLR racer with a closed top for endurance events in the future. His musings came to fruition in the shape of a competition coupé with the performance that no other road-going sports car could match. The two-seater recorded a speed of 290 km/h during a test on a closed section of motorway outside Munich.
