Book Synopsis Mercedes-Benz SL Sportscars by : Laurence Meredith
Download or read book Mercedes-Benz SL Sportscars written by Laurence Meredith and published by Sutton Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains over 200 photographs which, supported by informative captions, provide a history of the SL series. Spanning four generations of finely engineered sports cars, the Mercedes-Benz SL story begins with a successful assault on the Le Mans 24 Hours in 1952. Engineered very much to meet the demands of American safety and emissions requirements, this series was every bit as good as its illustrious forebears, but it was only in the 1990s that aficionados have come to appreciate their fine qualities. From the company that invented the motor car, Daimler-Benz's many customers have, through successive generations, come to expect the best in comfort, safety, performance and technical innovation. Based on the racing cars, the mighty 300SL Gullwing coupe followed in 1954, and caused a genuine sensation in New York where it debuted alongside its baby sister, the 190SL.
Book Synopsis Mercedes-Benz SL & SLC 107 Series by : Brian Long
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.

Book excerpt: If you search for a car that can hold its own, when parked next to a Porsche 911 Cabrio, don't look any further. Because the SL R230 is regarded by many as the best looking SL that has left Stuttgart after the famous SL Gullwing. On top it is immense fun to drive, with powerful V8s and V12s to match the looks. Like the drive-train they are almost bullet-proof. Early cars suffered from quality problems that could spoil the fun factor somewhat. But all in all the R230 plays its GT role rather well, even with six-cylinder engines. And the AMG versions are true sports cars. This book with comprehensive buyer's guide can help you to find the right one, if the R230 interests you. It was already published as e-book in 2012 and has been completely revised in Nov.2015. The book explains the VIN and data card in great detail, discusses the SBC, ABC systems and looks at potential problems with the vario-roof. Superb photography and an enjoyable test-drive in the splendid SL65 AMG are other highlights. It ends with a detailed list of the cars' technical specifications and annual production history of each model.

Book Synopsis Mercedes-Benz Sport-Light Coupe by : Nik Greene
Download or read book Mercedes-Benz Sport-Light Coupe written by Nik Greene and published by The Crowood Press. This book was released on 2021-02-22 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the very beginning, the automotive industry was dominated by open-top vehicles whose body shapes were very much based on the horse-drawn carriage, there were open and closed carriages and then there was the Coupe. These were developed from the type of carriage known as the Berlin coach, which was designed as a classic vehicle for individual luxury travel and prestige. This type of carriage offered an intimate atmosphere focused exclusively on the passengers; it did not even have space for luggage, it simply exuded style, elegance and luxury in every way. This first volume of the Mercedes-Benz Coupe book addresses the journey from what was a functional sports car design to what has become the incomparable Mercedes-Benz 'Sports Coupe'; its timeless body design has remained, even today both a dream car and a dream Coupe to anyone whom aspires to follow in the footsteps of the early individualists who chose style and elegance over practicality. With over 300 photographs and illustrations, this book includes: an overview of the early days of 'Sports-Car' design; the influences of aerodynamics on design evolution; early protagonists at Daimler-Benz and how they influenced design of the Coupe shape; how the Racing Coupe influenced what became the production Sport Coupe; the experimental and one-off prototypes, and finally the continuation of the Super Sport Light concept through the 'S-Class' range.
