Oh yes I like that, that much I had to buy the highly detailed model version. Well worth the money.

The Blue Wonder - 300SL engine in the original, so I presume the recreation above that Mercedes had built is the same?
Jay Leno has a similar one IIRC?

If the front wheels were at the front I can see this being beautiful but the way it is...just looks wrong imo

Good video on YouTube on Jay Lenos channel about his (replica) one.
It's a bewildering machine.

Whether you believe you can, or you cannot, you're probably right.

I remember seeing a model of one of those and i thought it was some sort of thunderbirds inspired made up concept thing, which made them quite cool when I found out they were real. Problem is they remind me of these  |

Nice, there was a few lovely ones at the Revival last weekend. Sorry didn’t get pics, I’m sure someone will drop them in

^ Cool toy  That must be very strange to drive I had a Fiat camper van many years ago that had the seats ahead of the front wheels - it's an odd sensation when you turn since the vehicle rotates around a pivot point that is behind you  |
