Collector's 1/18 Scale Mercedes 300SL W194

This 1/18 scale diecast model replicates the Mercedes Benz 300SL W194 number 16 driven by Rudolf Caracciola at the 1952 Grand Prix of Bern. It is an officially licensed, limited edition of 1500 pieces worldwide. The hand-crafted metal precision model suits adult collectors and hobby enthusiasts seeking authentic Gullwing detail.

Authentic Gullwing Detail and Mechanical Accuracy

The model features an authentic Gullwing body with fold-up doors, turnable vent windows and a fuel tank filler with a flip-open cover in the trunk. A detailed 6-cylinder in-line engine is mounted at a 50 degree incline with aggregates and pipes visible. Real rubber tires, steerable wheels and a finely worked dashboard with full instruments complete the accurate presentation.

Limited Edition for Display, Not Play

The diecast construction with some plastic parts, textile upholstery seats and metal cooler grill make this a display piece rather than a toy for regular handling. Buyers who want a model for frequent play or younger users should consider more durable alternatives. The limited run of 1500 pieces worldwide means availability will not be replenished once sold out.

Questions about this item

Will this 1/18 scale model fit on the same shelf as my other 1/18 diecast cars?

Yes, it shares the 1/18 scale and measures approximately 9.5 inches long, 3.75 inches wide and 3.25 inches high, so it aligns with standard 1/18 display spacing.

How can I confirm the steering and opening features work correctly after unboxing?

Turn the front wheels to verify they steer the steering column, then open each gullwing door, the hood and the trunk lid; the fuel filler flap in the trunk should also flip open.

Does the box include a display base or acrylic case, or must I buy those separately?

The model comes in the manufacturer's original unopened packaging with real rubber tires, steerable wheels, opening hood, doors and trunk, detailed engine and interior, but no display base or case is included.
