Included in the sale of the Ecclestone Grand Prix Collection.

One of only five examples ever produced and the only example allowed to be fitted with Mercedes-Benz badges on the front and wheel spinners.

A very special piece of engineering and incredibly correct due to Bernie Ecclestone’s original example at the time being used for reference.

All of the five examples went to prominent collectors and this is the only one ever offered for re-sale.

The Mercedes-Benz W125 was one of the most powerful racing cars of the pre-war era, setting the fastest speed ever recorded on a public road, a record that was not broken for almost 70 years.
