From a recent financial business article: “There has been a surge in interest from collectors around the globe focusing on high end European luxury and sports car from the late 1970’s and early 1980’s, they are consider the next frontier of assets that will provide great return on investments, in fact some of my clients have left others markets and have put a portion of their portfolios into this lucrative classic car market, as with gold it will never be worth 0, like many stocks are these days in fact portions of the classic car market have outpaced the overall stock market. Excerpts from the motoring press “The SLC was surely never intended as a sports car. It is so elegant, so superbly balanced in line and form, so exquisitely contoured to look beautiful from any viewpoint that to subject it to the gross indignities of any kind of track would be sheer vandalism. And yet the car begs to be driven in a sporting way, positively solicits the fast corner, the fine balancing of foot and hand, of centripetal and centrifugal accelerations. It is surely the best Mercedes-Benz ever to have been built.” As you will deduce from the above, the famously hard to impress motoring writer, LJK Setright, was a huge fan of the 450SLC, rating it far superior to its convertible SL sibling and being one of the panel who voted it European Car of the Year. The only Mercedes coupe ever to be adapted from a soft-top rather than a saloon, the SLC was essentially a W107 Series convertible stretched by ten inches to give room for two rear seats and given a fixed steel roof. Launched in 1972 and remaining in production until 1980, it was a superb grand tourer and was good for a top speed of 135mph. fantastically strong and stable at speed, it made a great long distance rally car, winning the South America Rally in 1978 and coming second on the East Africa Safari.
