10. 1952 Mercedes-Benz W194

What an absolute stunning car. I’ve never seen one of these before. Only ten W194s were made. This is an endurance racer produced by Mercedes-Benz for the 1952 sports car racing season, its first after World War II. Powered by the 3.0 litre SOHC straight-6 M194 engine, it ran off an impressive string of victories that included 24 Hours of Le Mans, Bern-Bremgarten, the Eifelrennen at Nürburgring, and Mexico’s Carrera Panamericana. The W194 was succeeded by the Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR in 1955.
