The car brand Mercedes-Benz has roots all the way back to Karl Benz's patented car from 1886 – the world's first. For generations, the cars have been considered among the world's best in terms of quality and durability. Since 2019, Mercedes-Benz is a company under Daimler AG.

Mercedes-Benz C180 Coupé
Few make more beautiful coupés than Mercedes-Benz, especially with AMG styling. The sports suspension makes it very smooth to drive.
Mercedes-Benz 600 and Maybach
Built for the world's richest, such as kings, sheikhs and princes. This is not a car for ordinary people. The W100 never had a successor.
Mercedes-Benz 540K replica
The original of this vehicle was the highest you could drive on German soil before the war.
Made for America
Due to stricter safety requirements, American car manufacturers could no longer produce open cars. The Mercedes-Benz SL could.

Mercedes-Benz W126
Many of the cars are still in traffic all over the world. Several were used - and are still used - in official and ceremonial missions.
Mercedes-Benz W123
Withstood many hundreds of thousands of problem-free kilometers and were popular as taxis almost all over the world. The cars were assembled under strict quality control.
Mercedes-Benz W116
The W116 broke with the more discreet luxury of its predecessors. The model flagged class and wealth in a completely different way to its predecessors.
Mercedes-Benz W115
Referred to as "Strich-Acht". The W114 is equipped with 6-cylinder engines, while the W115 has 4-cylinder engines.
Mercedes-Benz W111
Mercedes-Benz followed the trend of rear fins from the 50s, although they were more sober than American models. The model was referred to as "Heckflosse".
Mercedes-Benz W110
The W110 was a simpler car than the W111. Smaller engines, simpler equipment, less chrome and wood, as well as simpler seats. But the W110 was not a car for the "everyman".
Mercedes-Benz W108
When the stern fins were no longer modern, Mercedes-Benz was forced to upgrade its "Heckflosse" model W111. A necessary mid-life change.
Mercedes-Benz W100
Equipped with hydraulic suspension and the well-known V8 6,3 engine, with a respectable 250 HP which can drag the car from 0 to 100 in 9,7 seconds.
Mercedes-Benz SL
Early SLs included the small W120 which was based on the pontoon cars, but also the W198 300SL with the famous "gullwing" doors.
Mercedes-Benz W201
Should compete with small "executive" compact cars such as the BMW 3 series and Audi 80. This was a new class for Mercedes-Benz.
Mercedes-Benz R107
A 2-seater roadster with a soft top or hard top. It could also be ordered as 2+2 seats, but the back seat is practically useless.
Mercedes-Benz Pontoon
In the 50s, the 220S was priced like a Cadillac. The simple pontoon body looks far from flashy, but still stylish.
Mercedes-Benz W120
The little Mercedes-Benz from the 50s was delivered with either petrol or diesel – both four-cylinder engines.
Mercedes-Benz R129
Shared drivetrain with the S-class of the time (W140) which will later be the model in which Princess Diana was killed. She also owned a red R129 herself.
Mercedes-Benz SLK
Should compete with the BMW Z3. It ended up being a rush project. Costs had to be kept down. Pure business – kaum Leidenschaft.
