Gumball 3000 Stirling Moss

17 Aug 2013

Among all the cars at the Gumball 3000 start in Copenhagen in 2013, there was one that made collectors' hearts beat faster: the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren Stirling Moss, driven by Team 83, The Flying Dutchman.

The Stirling Moss edition is close to unobtainable:

  • Only 75 cars produced
  • Supercharged V8 with 650 hp
  • 0 to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds
  • Top speed 350 km/h
  • No windscreen, no roof, pure speedster

Seeing a rarity like this in the streets of Copenhagen is an experience in itself. The route ran from Copenhagen all the way through Europe to Monte Carlo.
