This one (I think):

And definitely this one :

But the rest of the modern ones look a bit too chunky/clunky for my taste even if they are superbly engineered etc.

Title: Re: A quick visit to Mercedes Benz World
Post by: Hedge on November 20, 2010, 08:44:09 pm: Didn't see a 190E Cossie Nath. :ashamed:

Quite a few F1 cars (or models) but I have to say the Mika one looks the best.
