Download or read book Mercedes Benz SL SLC 107 Series written by Brian Long and published by Veloce Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2010-12-15 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s hard to believe, but the W113-series Mercedes-Benz SL was launched almost 50 years ago. However, its timeless styling has kept it fresh and attractive in the eyes of a new generation of enthusiasts, as well as those returning to the car having owned one when they were still in dealerships. A combination of superb original design, peerless engineering and build quality simply adds to the desirability of this series of classic German machines, and has ensured that many of these cars can still be seen in regular use today. Covering the SL’s ever-changing specification, competition record, and its presence in many of the world’s major markets is a huge task, but it’s all presented here in definitive detail, along with stunning contemporary photography, in a volume that will readily grace any reference library shelf or connoisseur’s coffee table. An earlier book, also published by Veloce, and covering the 107-series SL and SLC, acts as a perfect companion to this title, taking the SL story up to 1989.
Download or read book MERCEDES BENZ the Modern SL Cars the R107 and C107 written by Bernd S. Koehling and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You haven't gotten yourself a R107 yet? Too bad, the good ones can cost a small fortune today and they have only one way to go: UP! But don't worry, plenty of them have been built and plenty of them are still around. Problem is, which one is the right one for you? Can you imagine that even a low mileage, good looking R107 can still far exceed your wildest imaginations, when it comes to restoration costs? Everybody seems to want a late model 560SL. Why not an early 450SL for half the money? The joy and pride of ownership is the same, trust me. Or how about one of the former longtime underdogs, an SLC? Also they start to appreciate, a few of them even very fast, faster than a mint 560SL. If any of this is of interest, then this new book (published already earlier as e-book) is for you. It does not only deal with development and history, it also comes with a comprehensive buyer's guide for both the SL and SLC. This includes a look at their price development over the past years. Another focus has been the VIN and data card, so that you have a better understanding, how they were equipped and to which market they have been shipped first. Superb recent photography from the author's collection can help you to find the right car or it might even serve as reference in a restoration project. Naturally the paint and interior upholstery options, full technical details plus the annual production history of each model are covered. As a bonus, rare insights into the R107's almost unknown rally history are given.FREE BONUS: When you have bought this book, you are eligible for a free pdf file of any Mercedes model (such as W111 or W198 or R107 for example) the author has covered in one of his books. Please contact the author through his website (inside the book) and stipulate, which free pdf file you want him to send to you.

Download or read book Daimler V8 S P 250 written by Brian Long and published by Veloce Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2008-01-15 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today very much part of the classic car scene around the world, the Daimler SP250 sports car has a fascinating and eventful history. The idea of staid and traditional Daimler building an open sports car is surprising enough in itself: that the car should be fiberglass-bodied, V8 engined and have a daring futuristic appearance stretches credibility to the limit...but that’s exactly what the company did produce between 1959 and 1964. A bold new design, the “Dart” as it was originally to be called, should have been struggling Daimler’s savior and a springboard to a range of new models, including saloons and coupes. Things didn’t quite work out that way and Daimler was acquired by Jaguar, which led to the SP250’s Edward Turner-designed V8 engine being used in a Daimler-badged version of the Jaguar Mkll saloon. Here is the full story of the SP250 including concept, development and production history. Also covered are related models, specials, buying and restoration, chassis numbers, production numbers, color schemes, clubs and specialists. Altogether a source book of essential information for SP250 and Daimler enthusiasts.
