Classic British Flight Sim

...in this difficult to identify foreign car:-





I'll add a pic of the car and and another of the component for the first correct ident of the car

Is that a Mercedes 300SL....?

It looks very like a Corgi model I had in the 60's.

No...It's not a 300SL

Is it the highly sought after 300 SLR Coupe?

Hi Folks

Peter -
EDIT - As Darren already identified -
Mercedes 300 SLR Uhlenhaut Coupe ?
Beautiful

PS
What was the British component please ...
Guessing Lucas coil or distributor ?

Though probably the windscreen wiper blade.

It looks like a Marcos GT

The British component is Ermintrude the cow who kindly supplied the leather

It could be from Dougal. Time for bed I think.

The British component must be the die from which it was cast

A cigar to Darren...It is indeed the Ulenhaut 300SLR coupe:-

It was never for sale and only two were built...They are both still owned by Mercedes and they have declined offers of over 25 million dollars for each of them:-

Here is the model of the car:-



Its British bit was the tyres (Dunlop Racing):-


Like the open racer it carried two spares in the boot as front and back wheels were a differing size (So six of them really ).
