Description
The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class is a type of car from Mercedes-Benz introduced in 1952. It was initially mainly used for racing, but due to the great interest in a production car, the 300SL Gullwing came along, with an unusually flowing body for that time, gull-wing doors and a top of ± 260 km/h thanks to an injection engine. A Roadster version of this car was also built and certain parts of the 300SL can be found in the 300 SLR Coupe.
Many changes were made to the series over the years. The car changed from a thoroughbred sports car into a sporty convertible. In addition to the SL Coupé, a convertible version was also produced. This gave the SL an even sportier character.
