‘Forgotten’ Formula 1 car abandoned in warehouse for three decades set to fetch £5MILLION at auction
In it’s day, this car was a huge advance in race car technology, almost as much as the W125 was, pre-war.

I would like to see the fuel injection system.IIRC that was when Benz first started attempting mechanical fuel injection.It was an engineering nightmare,but worked well when it did.
Yep–it made a diesel injector pump look like a garden implement.
Speaking of Diesel,somebody filled the Prez’s limo with it by mistake

Have you seen the size of the mechanical fuel injection in the W100 Chassis ( Pullman )with the original 6.3litre engine……huge.
