Mercedes - Benz 710 is one of the most powerful and modern vehicles of its time. Its high-speed durability and exceptional design set it apart from its competitors and paved the way for its widespread usage after the world war 2. The model was used extensively by both German and Italian military and civilian alike. During the war, the vehicle served in all theaters and even reached Finland in order to provide some much-needed assistance to the Finnish army there.
