About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Represented as the original engine and transmission. The course opening car at the 2015 Pebble Beach Tour d'Elegance driven by Sir Stirling Moss and his wife Lady Susie, glovebox signed by the racing legend. Sound older polishing swirled paint. Good interior. Clean chassis and engine compartment Very good chrome. Not super fresh but done to high standards and consistently maintained. Gerhard Schneurer collection.

Market commentary

Appropriately estimated and appropriately acquired in this transaction, the Sir Stirling Moss connection is an added bonus given his history as the winner of the Mille Miglia in the original 300SL in 1955.
