1937 Mercedes-Benz W125 by Crosthwaite & Gardiner 

A beautifully detailed artwork by Laurence Hawthorne featuring the formidable 1937 Mercedes-Benz W125, faithfully recreated by the renowned specialists Crosthwaite & Gardiner. Widely regarded as one of the greatest Grand Prix cars ever built, the W125 represented the pinnacle of pre-war racing engineering, combining breathtaking power with cutting-edge technology to dominate the international motorsport scene.

Powered by a supercharged 5.6-litre straight-eight engine producing well over 600 horsepower, the W125 was capable of astonishing speeds that would remain virtually unmatched for decades. Driven by legends such as Rudolf Caracciola and Hermann Lang, it became an icon of the legendary Silver Arrows era and helped cement Mercedes-Benz's reputation for engineering excellence.

The example depicted celebrates the remarkable craftsmanship of Crosthwaite & Gardiner, whose painstaking work has preserved and recreated some of the world's most significant historic racing machinery. Their dedication ensures that the engineering brilliance and visual drama of the W125 can still be appreciated by modern enthusiasts.
