Chassis:
Originally used as one of the two test and development vehicles, chassis 00002 was brought out for the Tourist Trophy and Targa Florio. On both occasions, the car was not raced but served as the team's spare car and practiced by the likes of Stirling Moss and Juan Manuel Fangio. Retained by Mercedes-Benz, it has been meticulously restored by the company's Classic department ahead of the SLR's 60th anniversary celebrations in 2015. It was restored to the livery used by Hans Herrmann in the 1955 Mille Miglia on the car that was later destroyed at Le Mans. Now aged 87, Herrmann himself was on hand to demonstrate the car at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
