Mercedes-Benz Classic Magazine

Free Bi-annual Magazine

The Mercedes-Benz Classic Magazine was established as a publication more than 15 years ago by Daimler AG. The magazine puts the brand’s traditions and the unique history of Mercedes-Benz as the automotive manufacturer with the richest tradition in the spotlight. It links historic vehicles, from antique to classic cars, with a modern, often bold layout and a fast, dynamic editing style. The objective is to show previously unreleased photographs and editorial views.

Club members receive this magazine for free twice a year. Delivered to your door from Germany, it normally costs €8.00 per issue.
