From road to track
Ultra-expensive windshieldless supercars have never touched me. Neither is the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, which I find a little complicated and ugly. Still, mix the two, just like this McLaren Stirling Moss SLR, and you’ll get something incredibly amazing.
Welcome to You Must Buy, our daily look at the cars you deserve to buy instead of this boring passenger sedan.
The SLR McLaren Stirling Moss created in honor of the three hundred SLR that Sir Moss led to victory in the 1955 Mille Miglia road rally. The tribute edition works with the same supercharged 5.5-liter V-8 engine that powers the coveted SLR 722 Edition, which develops 641 horsepower. In this app, however, ceiling and windshield loss contributes to a weight saving of 200 pounds, giving it a merit of 722 functionality.
It’s also weirder. Of course, the production of 150 games of the 722 makes it a massive market, but Mercedes has only manufactured 75 McLaren Stirling Moss SLR cars. They were only presented to existing LRT owners. However, it remained in a sealed box. He has traveled more than 5,000 miles; much through our standards, but a lot for an 11-year-old car so rare. Not only that, but he participated in the 2012 Mercedes-Benz 1000 Miglia Challenge, in the heyday of his player.
It was indexed as part of RM Sotheby’s European online summer auction which ended on July 22, but the car is still thought to be on sale on the site. As for the price, well, if you have to ask, it’s better to take a look elsewhere.
