There's been a few!

20's & 30's WS06RS SSKL
50's W198 300SL Gullwing
60's W113 Pagoda
70's W109 300SEL 6,3
80's R129 500SL
90's W201 190 Evolution II

Not sure theres been any truly great Mercs in the last 20 years. Maybe the SLR McLaren or the CLK Black/DTM.

I'd add the first C63, the SLS black and at a push the last of the naturally aspirated W212 E63 (IMO)

300SL Gullwing. The absolute epiphany of Mercedes Benz in my opinion; timeless style, class and sophistication.

Mercedes 300 SLR - with the number 722 on the side.Driven by some bloke called Moss in the Mille Miglia. The word (retch, shudder)'icon' is almost worn out through over use by lazy journalists but I could be persuaded it belongs to this car .
This is the ONLY correct answer.
Agree that 'icon' like 'going forward', 'lessons will be learned', 'draw a line under this & move on', 'robust meeting', 'sustainable', 'racial equality', 'fair trade', 'carbon footprint' are all words & phrases that in this endless PC correct age most are thoroughly tired of.

Not a Mercedes Benz IIRC?
Well, it was a Benz, and Benz later merged with Mercedes to become Mercedes Benz, so it is possible arguable if it is strictly a Mercedes Benz, but it is probably one of the most important cars of all time.

Steady on old man; it's nothing to do with (sigh ) 'political correctness' . I don't like lazy use of English but I don't find either 'racial equality' or 'fair trade' unacceptable , stylistically or otherwise.

And what do you think about that in the future enter the DLC allows "to pull the car out of the shed?" Something on the principle that as a player you are somewhere in the old barn, it is theoretically eg Beetle - haggle with some owner, you are buying the old Beetle from a haystack, you turn up and it turns out that include 911? Would you like to try something like this play?

I think;

Would you like your car mechanic simulator game to come with the option of additional downloadable content, whereby you can not only look at / repair / work on the cars but also play through the scenarios of discovering the car, viewing the car, haggling for / buying the car etc?

I will have to take your word for that wink

Is there such a game available, or can I expect a polly anytime soon?

We are working hard on the development of the game. My questions are in order to focus on the specific needs of players. So if a game with storyline and scenario proves to be the most interesting version of the possible, we will be obliged to modernizing.
