POMU6-Mercedes-Benz Museum 2/2020+E
Mercedes Museum in der Kategorie Porsche Museum?
Klar, kein Problem:
Beide sind „Stuttgarter“!
Beide bauen klasse Autos!
Beide sind extrem erfolgreich im Motorsport!
Beide sind weltweit tolle Botschafter für’s „Ländle“!
Und beide haben ein tolles Museum zu bieten!
Also: Passt!
Mercedes Museum in the category Porsche Museum?
Sure, no problem:
Both are „Stuttgarters“!
Both build great cars!
Both are extremely successful in motorsports!
Both are worldwide great ambassadors for the „Ländle“!
And both have a great museum to offer.
So: Fits!
Ok then: let’s go:

Der weltweit erste kleine schnelllaufende Benzin-Verbrennungsmotor!
The „grandfather clock“
The world’s first small high-speed petrol combustion engine!

1.1 HP at 650 rpm!

Almost no more carriage…

The guys were already pretty brilliant back then!

External crankshaft and angle drive!

Der „Reitwagen“!
Of course, it can’t be missing:
The „riding carriage“!

And everything is always explained in detail!

Im 8.Stock beginnt hier die Zeitreise im Jahr 1886.
Man läuft die alle Stockwerke wie auf den Flanken einer riesigen Schraube
nach unten bis zur Neuzeit ab…
Good job:
On the eighth floor here, time travel begins in 1886.
You walk through all the floors like on the flanks of a huge screw
down to modern times…

der heutigen Mercedes-Benz Automobile.
…and meets the great-grandfathers, grandfathers and fathers
of today’s Mercedes-Benz automobiles.

And they are mostly breathtakingly beautiful!

There’s gotta be a couple of millionaires standing around!

nee heute Mercedes-Benz-Arena des VFB-Stuttgart.
On the far left, by the way, is the Neckarstadion,
nee today Mercedes-Benz Arena of the VFB-Stuttgart.

On the winding way down there are always interesting photo points.

Yeah, and the little cars are getting younger and younger!

What’s the plane doing here?

Mercedes-Benz has not only built car engines!

Here is a V12-cylinder compressor aircraft engine with 34 litres capacity and 1000PS!


Race car with road registration?

The spectacular Mercedes 300SL gullwing!

A few laps with such a car would be very interesting today!

Long live model making…

…and safety – always a big Mercedes issue.

This is what the designers love – studies!

Wide-low-long: He already makes an impression!

Today’s topic…

Automatikgetriebe
The Mercedes boys are particularly good at this:
Automatic transmission

Planetary gear set (left) with ring gear (right) and parking lock (top)

The racers have an extra section…

There is almost no racing area in which Mercedes has not played!

Rally – Formula 1 – Long distance – Touring cars – Trucks…

Sowohl bei den Langstreckenrennautos wie hier oben
als auch in der Formel 1:
Man unterstützt inoffiziell einen externen Rennstall (Sauber),
und leugnet dies solange, bis dieser erfolgreich ist.
Kurz darauf ist auf dem erfolgreichen Auto nur noch der Stern zu sehen…
My criticism of the Mercedes-Benz race strategy:
Both for the long distance race cars as well as here above
as well as in Formula 1:
You unofficially support an outside racing team (Clean),
and denies this until it is successful.
Soon after, the only thing that remains on the successful car is the star…

Ein Mercedes-Benz-V8-Formel 1-Hochdrehzahlmotor
And they’re good at it:
A Mercedes-Benz V8 Formula 1 high-rev engine

And an impressive biturbo truck diesel engine

Einer der herrlich kreischenden V10-Saugmotoren!
Formula 1 engines are becoming more and more compact:
One of the wonderfully screaming V10 naturally aspirated engines!

bis heute nochmal gewonnen?
Hier das Auto von Weltmeister Nico Rosberg,
mit dem er Lewis Hamilton 2016 geschlagen hat!
How many Formula 1 world championships
the Mercedes guys have won to this day?
Here the car of world champion Nico Rosberg,
with which he beat Lewis Hamilton in 2016!

On this (priceless) rear spoiler…

on that crazy sidebar…

ist sehr schön zu sehen, welchen unglaublichen Stellenwert
heute die Aerodynamik einnimmt!
…and this mad wing
is very nice to see the incredible value
today the aerodynamics takes over!

It should be an F1 car from the Hakkinen era.

All too often you don’t see the inside of a Formula One car…

A large part of the rear suspension is attached to the gearbox.

Ziemlich erfolgreiches Rennauto 1989/90
The Sauber-Mercedes C11 of Jean Louis Schlesser/Jochen Mass:
Pretty successful race car 1989/90

Sie haben den Ruhm der Silberpfeile geschaffen!
The „old guard“
You have created the glory of Silver Arrows!

Streamlined was the term then…

The machines were really nice…

…and really successful!

Ohne Servolenkung, ohne Servobremsen, ohne Sicherheitsgurte!
With these wild parts the boys drove far over 250 km/h:
No power steering, no power brakes, no seat belts!

Fangio – Caracciola – Kling – Moss & Co…

A little bit older...

…not quite as pretty…

All these nice pensioners…

This is a Mercedes racing car from 1900!


Great-grandfather with children and children’s children…

Three more valuables on the way out.

Sorry, but I don’t think this study is particularly successful…

Mercedes C111/2 (1970) with Wankel engine – still pleasing today!

And another study

Sehr empfehlenswert,
das Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart-Untertürkheim!
A last designer greeting for the farewell!
Very recommendable,
the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart-Untertürkheim!
Super-Kurzführung ! Macht richtig Lust, da mal wieder hinzugehen. (Konnte ja am 15.11 nicht teilnehmen)
Hi Gägge, vielen Dank für die Blümchen! Wenn sich über das Jahr diesbezüglich nichts tut, können wir da gerne auch mal hintigern… Gruß Christoph
