A recreation of a Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR, used by Sir Stirling Moss in the 1955 Mille Milglia, is topping the bill at the upcoming Classic Race Aarhus Auction.

Only nine examples of the original car were ever created, becoming one of the most iconic race cars of all time before long. Of those first cars, only six are left. With recreations the only way for drivers to realistically get their hands on an example, they are fiercely sought after.
