key moments & facts

For those that know, the 450SLC 5.0 is quite a special car.

Lightweight aluminium body panels, an all-alloy version of Mercedes’ legendary M117 V8, and a slightly tweaked rear axle ratio, turned this refined pillarless coupe into a 140mph world-beater.

Fewer than 3,000 of these cars were ever built, making them a rare sight on the roads today. But a real treat for those that recognise the importance of the wonderfully discreet ‘5.0’ badge.
