Behold the 1962 Mercedes Benz 300SL Roadster – a less showy convertible version of the classic 300SL ‘Gullwing’.

This vehicle – with the 3.0l inline six engine that made it the performance car of its day – was first purchased in New York by a PanAm pilot, eventually making its way to Europe with its original factory colour, interior, numbers-matching mechanicals and documentation.

Price on request.

Behold: the Mazda RX-10 Vision Longtail – a concept render by Maximilian Schneide of a mid-engined supercar inspired by the legendary 787B Le Mans-winning racer.

The design ‘envisages’ a hybrid 2.3l turbocharged ICE coupled to two electric motors at the front wheels for a combined 1,030bhp and a top speed of 436km/h.

Admittedly, something of a ‘what if’, but still.
