A 1929 Mercedes-Benz 38/250 SSK was sold for $7


Friday 3rd September 2004

A 1929 Mercedes-Benz 38/250 SSK was sold for $7.4 million by Bonhams at Sussex, UK. The purest sports car of its time, a trio of SSKs swept the podium at the 1927 German Grand Prix. Thirty-three cars were built, and all lived hard lives–today only a handful of original and complete cars survive. This was a desirable short-wheelbase car, fully documented from new, unrestored and still wearing its original coachwork.
