Minichamps has done a number of variations of the Mercedes Pontin body style that ran from 1953-63. This is the 220S version.

That's a very nice Minichamps! Tekno did the 1959 Mercedes Benz 180 back in the day. A very nice casting from Denmark...

That Tekno was indeed a very nice casting. I had one in dark green that I bought as a kid in ‘59. One night I parked it in my bedroom window sill pretending it was parked outside. Next morning I forgot it was there and closed the window. Crushed it. Not a good day as I recall.
