From the initial vision to the final production model: watch the development and testing of the new SLK here. Under the body of the new roadster a gigantic effort has been undertaken, intense engineering work, including several years of test runs. Freezing cold, scorching heat and long-term stress tests -- are only three of the many hurdles to overcome to bring the SLK into series production. Author: MercedesBenzTV Duration: 13:49
Photos for video Mercedes-Benz.tv: The development and testing of the new SLK
Here is an extremely memorable piece of footage where 5-time world champion, Juan Manuel Fangio, aged 66, races against Jack Brabham. The 4 lap 'demonstration' was run after the Australian Grand Prix at Sandown in 1978. With Fangio in his W196 Mercedes Benz and Brabham in his Repco Brabham, a car 12 years newer than Fangio's. An awesome exhibition of great racing cars, pushed to their limit against one another, a special clip. Author: edisjasarevic Duration: 8:05
