The Silver Bullets & Red Arrows Collection...⁠

Показать описание

Head to the Collecting Cars YouTube channel to hear the owner of this carefully curated assembly of landmark performance cars talk on his collection.⁠
⁠
Growing up in a family with a passion for automobiles, and with relatives who even raced them, it was no surprise that the owner of this collection would go on to acquire special motor cars of their own. Having saved up funds in their younger years, the first classic he bought was an Alfa Romeo Duetto that was in need of significant refurbishment – and a strong interest in Italian machines is still obvious in this assembly today.⁠
⁠
Despite a passion for the creations of manufacturers in Turin, Milan, and the Emilia-Romagna region, among the first cars acquired for this set were a German legend and a British style icon. ⁠
⁠
The star of this collection is the sensational 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL ‘Gullwing’. Acquired via leading specialist Paul Russell in the US, the car was initially used by the seller in unrestored condition, before it was sent to Switzerland for a no-expense-spared refurbishment at a cost of more than CHF 260,000. It remains in its original factory colour of Fire Engine Red, and has been thoroughly enjoyed as intended on fantastic European tours.⁠
