RARE. Retails for over $30.00
Only a coupe left in my inventory.
The new owner, of a US branch of a company group that Schuco is a part of, DOESN'T CARE SCHUCO MODELS ANY LONGER. Currently there no exporters of Schuco models to US. It could change in a future, but who knows when. Buy while supply last.
This classic Mercedes 300SL Roadster, 1954 model is simply irresistible, the legendary car that has its own place in an automobile history and timeless, unmistakable looks.

Outstanding quality model, that much more accurate and greatly detailed compare to any other models of this car in 1/43 scale, doors open! This is a great model indeed, which a must for any serious collection and especially for a Mercedes and Sport cars collector. The beauty of this car did not faded over years and still greatly appreciated, a real 300SL Roadster in fine condition sales for up to $300,000.00, it is about $200,000 less compare to a Gullwing.
Schuco is very old, famous, German Company that has an established name among collectors all over the world. They were a leader in die cast car models back in ‘70s. Recently they reestablished line of die cast models, and as you are about to see, they are doing a great job.
Two lines of models in 1/43 scale are available. Economy -Schuco Jr line - is inexpensive, but decent quality models;
and Gorgeous - Edition 1:43 in 5 Collections: Classics, Contemporary, Motorsport, Historic Delivery Trucks and Tractors, comprises an enormous variety of
highly detailed models reflecting important periods of German automobile production.
Schuco models are great addition to any serious collections. Models are accurate, with an attention to small details, rubber tires on authentic rims, in variety of colors (each color issue has the individual catalog number). Came in acrylic display case with black base that has a car name and model printed on It.
This is a match to Minichamps quality with a great name stands behind It.
There are not many dealers that care Schuco models. I still have almost all models from Jr line and from all 5 Collections of Edition 1/43 (Collector Edition).
I am going to list more items daily.
