Mercedes-Benz high-speed racing car transporter.

The special high-speed transporter for racing cars was a one-of-a-kind specimen built by the Mercedes-Benz testing department. The racing department used the transporter, also called the “Blue Wonder”, to chauffeur its racing cars in 1955 – at speeds of up to 106 mph. As the original no longer exists, the vehicle was completely reconstructed with the help of documents from the archives.
