Mercedes-Benz W186
The Mercedes-Benz W186 model 300 was a four-door luxury tourer produced by Mercedes-Benz between 1951 and 1957. The company's largest and most prestigious automobile, it was the S 600 of its day, elegant, powerful, exclusive, and expensive. Three versions were produced in succession, known informally as the 300a (or simply 300), 300b, and 300c. An enlarged "300d" variant built on the W189 chassis succeeded it in late 1957. Also referred to as a "Type 300", the W186 was equal in features and price but superior in performance to the rival Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud. Favored by statesmen and business leaders, it offered options such as a glass partition, VHF mobile telephone, and dictation machine. All but hand-built as the company flagship, the W186 is often identified as an Adenauer after Konrad Adenauer, the first Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, who employed six custom cabriolet, hardtop saloon, and landaulet versions of the W186 and its successor W189 during his 1949-1963 tenure. Among the custom features in these "parade cars" were writing desks, sirens, curtains, dividing partitions, sunroofs, and half-roof "landaulet" configurations. Technologically advanced, the 300 was regarded as a "driver's" car, sharing numerous design innovations and mechanical components with the iconic Mercedes-Benz 300 SL "Gullwing", including engine, suspension, and chassis.

Mercedes-Benz M273 engine
The Mercedes-Benz M273 engine is a V8 automobile piston engine family used in the 2000s (decade). It was based on the similar M272 V6 introduced in 2004. An evolution of the M113 V8, all M273s have aluminium engine blocks, sequential fuel injection, forged steel connecting rods, a one-piece cast camshaft, and a magnesium intake manifold. The cylinders are lined with silicon/aluminium, and a dual-length Variable Length Intake Manifold is fitted. In addition to this, new features shared with the M272 include DOHC aluminium cylinder heads, 4 valves per cylinder and independent continuously variable valve timing on both the intake and exhaust sides. A new electronically controlled cooling system has eliminated the need for a mechanical thermostat for improved engine warm-up and optimum control of engine temperature.

Mercedes-Benz OM457 engine
The Mercedes Benz OM457 Engine is an 12.0 L (11,967 cc) displacement inline 6-cylinder 4-stroke Diesel engine. It is one of many motors in the 400 series of engines. The OM457 has many applications, including Truck, marine, military, municipal, and agricultural vehicles, as well as stationary settings. The engine has differing trim and power levels. The engine is water-cooled, and is produced using cast-iron cylinder block, with removable wet type cylinder liners. The engine utilizes diesel fuel delivered in a direct injection method from individual electronically controlled and camshaft actuated unit pumps. The cylinder heads are separate units for each cylinder. The crankshaft is a precision forged unit running in seven three-layer bearings, with counterweights bolted onto the crank webs, much like any other diesel motor of its vintage. The connecting rods are of a split design, with bronze bushings for the piston pin.
