1936 Mercedes-Benz 500K Special Cabriolet

    1936 Mercedes-Benz 500K Navigation
    This 500K has had many famous owners. Owned initially by Arturo Lopez Willshaw, an Argentinean multimillionaire, it then passed to Gianni Agnelli, founder of the Museo dell Automobile in Turin and member of the Fiat industrialist family. It was acquired by the Hayashi Collection in Japan in 1982, before a certain Mr. Bernie Ecclestone bought it for his collection. The current owner purchased the car in 2007 and has recently finished its restoration. This unique 500K five-seat Cabriolet is based on the 500K Special Roadster shown at the 1934 Paris Auto Show and is the creation of designer Hermann Ahrens.
