You mean the orange thingie.
That would be the rotary that MB played with back inthe 70's. Had gull wing doors to link back to the SL300's
I think it morphed a bit over the years and used other engines.
Model number was 111. Might have been a trple rotor.
I like this one. Same colour as the one I had. Still think they are one of the prettiest casrs ever made.

| yep started out triple rotor http://www.motorauthority.com/news/concept-cars/blast-from-the-past-meblahblahblah
then went to a four rotor C111-II before a turbocharged version of its 3.0L diesel engine was installed into the C111-II (now C111-III),

A 4 rotor engine would have sounded interesting.

266ci Bugger me thats huge. I'm guessing that it would have used huge amounts of fuel and been a right pig to drive.

I'm not sure the the hp/ton would be a selling point for something like that.

Theres a kiwi drag team running a 26B 4-rotor, sounds mean, but nothing sounds as good as Mad Mike's 20B peripheral port batty drift car, its obscenely hot sounding!
