Description
n 1954, a unique and one-off hand-crafted transporter was born out of the innovative efforts by the Daimler-Benz test department, and its curvaceous contour has remained unique ever since. Used by the MB racing division during the 1954/1955 season, the vehicle did a sensational job in fast transporting the race cars W196 and 300SLR.
After Daimler-Benz withdrew from racing in 1955, the “Blue Wonder” disappeared from the public view and was eventually scrapped in 1967. Only in the beginning of the 90’s did Daimler-Benz recall the memories of this jewel and have a replica rebuilt under the supervision of the Mercedes-Benz Classic Center to ensure that it was true to the original.
