The 2018 Men in Benz (MIB) Rally just concluded a couple of days ago. The event went successfully, and the organizers were able to raise €26,700 for charity.
Also dubbed as the 4.MIBRallye, the MIB rally is already in its fourth year. The latest event ran for two days from June 8 to 10. The show started in Steinfurt, Germany at the BERESA Classic. Then, it wrapped up at the Mercedes-Benz plant in Bremen.
According to the press release of the show, the proceeds of the 4.MIBRallye is for the benefit of the “Laureus Sports For Good Foundation Germany.” The cash was shelled out by the participants as well as the rally organizers. Thomas Ebeling and Ronald Bussin, First Laureu’s Global Patrons Circle Member, showed their appreciation for the overwhelming support poured by the people into the event.
A total of 67 vehicles hit the track during the MIB Rally. Many of them were customized for the rally. Some rare Mercedes cars made it into the event like the red Mercedes-AMG GT adorned with rally decals, extended rear wing, custom wheels and fog lights.
The Mercedes-Benz 300E AMG sedan can be seen cruising on the tracks too. However, nothing could beat the timeless beauty of the Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing. The 300SL came with rally decals but the owner seemed careful enough not to introduce any wild accessories that could significantly change the original look of the classic car.
