Mercedes 220 Cabriolet A - 1955
W187
Following the Second World War, Mercedes sought to regain lost prestige and succeeded in doing so with its spectacular 1954 300 SL with “butterfly” wings. Mercedes then launched a more extensive version in 1951, equipped with a six-cylinder overhead camshaft engine, the first for Mercedes after the conflict. This new mechanics makes it possible to take this car to 140 km/h, which also benefits from a more up-to-date style, the headlights now being integrated into the wings.
