1/18 Mercedes-Benz W 165, 1939 (24), lim. Edition 5.000 pieces

Mercedes-Benz had managed to develop and 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 and Rudolf Caracciola with starting number 24, were the pilots of choice and they achieved a sensational double victory. Herman Lang became the victor with starting numer 16 (CMC released that model already in a limited edition). Rudolf Caracciola with starting number 24 became second.

With the Caracciola model, starting number 24, CMC completes its presentation of the victorious W165 twins of Tripolis that achieved an outstanding triumph for Mercedes-Benz.
