It's said that in the second half of the 1952 Le Mans 24 Hours, as the day was dawning, a fog descended thick enough that the drivers of the works Mercedes300SLs had to open their guliwing doors in order to see where they were going. The caution paid off, because two of its three-car team came in 1-2 at the finish (the third, driven by Karl Kling and Hans Klenlg had retired due to electrical problems). Spark's model is of the winning car, piloted by Hermann Lang and Fritz Riess. It's a beautiful thing, its flawless silver paint accented by the vivid blue grille surround and interior, complete with Mercedes' trademark chequered plaid seats, while the super-fine vents in the side windows and rear roof have been cleverly modelled in the open position. For quality like this, the price is very reasonable.....
