Serious fans of Mercedes-Benz should move quickly if they want to secure a copy of a new, exquisitely produced volume covering the comprehensive history of the SL and SLC models from 1971 to 1989.
Authored by renowned marque expert, Brian Long, the unique, limited-edition volume details the Mercedes-Benz 107 series models of 1971 to 1989, capturing in extraordinary detail their ever-changing specifications.
Combining extensive research, as well as Brian’s personal ownership experience of the cars, the new book is based on his now out-of-print 2010 original, but has been revised and expanded to make this a volume of unrivalled detail.

Lavishly illustrated with rare, factory-sourced period photography, the book chronicles every facet of these iconic models — from design and development to sales figures, global markets, and motorsport achievements.
A must-have for serious Mercedes-Benz lovers and discerning collectors, the hardback copy runs to 304 pages, including 488 pictures, all elegantly bound in faux leather with silver-foil embossing and wrapped in a fine art-paper belly band.
Published in the UK by Veloce, an imprint of David and Charles, the book is available for pre-order, with a strictly limited run of 107 copies priced at £250 each, with a publication date of June 9.
