Italeri 1/16 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing Model Summary

Launched in 1954, the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL became iconic for its gullwing doors and advanced engineering. The production car used a 2,996 cc unit capable of roughly 260 km/h (162 mph). This Italeri 1/16 kit reproduces the shape and key details of the original for hobbyists seeking a faithful replica.

Precision Fit and Interior

The kit recreates interior elements such as the dashboard and seating with fine moulding. The detailed engine compartment invites careful assembly and offers a good representation of the original mechanical layout.

Opening Panels and Practical Details

Included are steerable wheels, rubber tyres, and opening gullwing doors as well as an opening bonnet and boot. Those working features make the finished model interactive and ideal for display with access to interior and engine areas.

  • Scale - 1/16
  • Construction - Plastic

Does this kit need glue to assemble?

Yes, adhesive is required for most joins. Use plastic model cement for secure bonds and allow proper drying time before handling.

Will the model sit on a standard display base?

The finished model fits most display plinths for 1/16 scale cars. Consider a shallow base to protect opening doors and to keep the model stable.

Are tyres pre-fitted to wheels in the kit?

Rubber tyres are provided and should be mounted during assembly. Dry-fit components first and clean any mould lines for a neat finish.
