Mercedes-Benz 300 SL in 1:12 scale
This is the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL in 1:12 scale by Schuco.
The Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, often referred to as the "Gullwing" due to its distinctive upward-opening doors, is an iconic classic that stands apart in the automotive industry. Introduced in the 1950s, it was the world's first production car to feature fuel injection, delivering impressive power and efficiency. The Gullwing's sleek and aerodynamic design, coupled with its powerful inline-six engine, made it a true sports car legend. Its innovative tubular space-frame chassis not only reduced weight but also contributed to its superior handling. The 300 SL was not just a car; it was a symbol of engineering innovation, setting benchmarks in performance, style, and technology that continue to inspire automotive enthusiasts and collectors today.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication.
