Product description

The Silver Arrows from Mercedes-Benz remain classic icons of the 1930s that command high respect. This is not only true of such racing cars as the W25, W125, W154 and W165, but also of their drivers like Manfred von Brauchitsch, Rudolf Caracciola and Hermann Lang, who were considered top-notch pilots of the time. Not quite as prominent and yet always influential on the public image of the Silver Arrows were their carriers. The blue trucks with the lettering “Mercedes-Benz Rennabteilung (Racing Department)” were always a symbol for the will to take on even the hardest competition. Access to an official replica of the racing car transporter of the 1930s was kindly provided by Mercedes-Benz for the development of our miniature.

Equipped with a 65 hp diesel engine, the Mercedes-Benz racing car transporters contributed to the huge success of the Silver Arrows in the 1930s. They were responsible for bringing the cars to the GP race tracks in time, maintaining the supply chain from the factory, and even serving as garages for repair work. Now and then they were used for presentation purposes. After a huge win, they trucked a victorious Silver Arrow under a furled tarpaulin cover to the enthusiastic audience. For a major race, a whole fleet of transporters was in use. But unfortunately, not a single one of the original transporters survived -- all the more reason why we decided to bring it back as a high-end replica.
