A hundred and twenty years ago, a Mercedes-Benz automobile won the first ever automobile race in the world. This year, Mercedes-Benz has, for the first time in history officially won the constructor’s world championship in Formula 1. To celebrate both these feats, Mercedes-Benz India decided to hold a vintage and classic car rally in Mumbai.
Over 65 cars turned up for the event ranging from a 1929 Mercedes Nurburg to a host of 170Vs in both coupe and cabriolet form. Amongst the sportscars were a host of Mercedes Benz SL generations, ranging from the first generation W198 in both 300SL and 190SL form along with subsequent W113 Pagoda, R107 and the ever popular R129. A host of sedans including the popular W123 and W124 series were also a part of the event.
Speaking on the occasion, Eberhard Kern, Managing Director and CEO, Mercedes-Benz India said, “Mercedes-Benz has always enjoyed a close connection with sporting attributes such as team spirit, dedication, responsibility, competition and fairness. These characteristics not only apply to our ultra-modern, highly technically advanced cars; they also reflect the goals of the company and its employees. Today we showcased some of the most iconic cars ever built by the brand which have been a visual treat for the enthusiasts to see these immaculate and timeless cars being driven around Mumbai.”
Other unique cars like the Mercedes-Benz Unimog also joined into the procession of Mercedes-Benz classic cars. Other notable entries were a duo of Mercedes-Benz SECs and a host of Ponton and Fintail models that enthralled bystanders. The rally, flagged off from the NCPA at Nariman point snaked through Marine Drive, Chowpatty, Peddar Road, Haji Ali, Worli Sea Face and the Bandra Worli sea link before returning to the original start point at the NCPA.
