CMC Diecast 1:18 Mercedes W165 24 1939 (Ltd Ed). The racing world had been awaiting the new “mini“ Silver Arrows, Mercedes-Benz W165 with great suspense. Its debut was scheduled for the GP of Tripolis, at the race track of Mellaha, on the 7th of May in 1939. Mercedes-Benz had managed to develop & build this new race car within 6 months. That was all the time they had to adapt it to the new rules that allowed only 1.5 liter engines. Hermann Lang with starting number 16 & Rudolf Caracciola with starting number 24, were the pilots of choice & they achieved a sensational double victory.

In 1931, he took over the racing team of Enzo Ferrari becoming its second president & won the very good second place at the Mille Miglia in 1932. In 1932, Count Trossi bought the chassis of the Mercedes SSK no. 36038 together with the engine no. 77640 at Mercedes in Rome. The english bodyworker Willie White gave the huge 7 litre a special body which made the Trossi Mercedes unique. While the Mercedes series production cars were painted in white in the 30’s, Count Trossi, however, let his SSK shine in black. Count Trossi owned the Black Prince until his death in 1949.

Lelouch's electrifying 9-minute drive has to be seen to be believed. No car chase on film has; or ever will; come close. The reality of no special effects; edits or blocking off streets is terrifying. Note: Blu-ray discs are in a high definition format & need to be played on a Blu-ray player. ...
