Manufacturer Press Release

World premiere at the 78th Auto Salon Geneva 2008
MANSORY Renovatio –
The ultimate makeover for the Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren
Since 2004 McLaren has been producing the Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren in
Woking in almost unaltered form. MANSORY, the specialist in upgrading super
sports cars and luxury limousines has now presented the gull wing racer at
the Auto Salon 2008 in Geneva in a new design. Not only did the bodywork get
a facelift, the engine was also given modified supercharging by means of
MANSORY compressor technology. Ultra-light forged wheels and a superlative
automotive interior complete the all-round renewal.
Fresh design in tried and tested quality
During the development of the MANSORY Renovatio great value was attached
both to individual design as well as aerodynamic efficiency. To save weight
MANSORY fashioned its body components out of carbon. The production car body
is also made out of this extremely light and resilient material. One
component of the body kit is the front apron in dynamic sport design. It
channels the airstream perfectly to the custom-designed intercoolers of the
performance kit and so ensures an extra helping of cooling air. The new side
skirts constitute the optical link between the front and rear wheel arch
extensions. These calm the airstream between the axles and create space for
the outlets of the MANSORY side pipe exhaust system. The new rear apron with
integrated diffuser takes care of additional downforce and puts the final
touch to the sporting lines of the styling package.
New components for impressive performance boost
The 5.5 litre V8 engine with its standard 626 hp likewise profited from the
comprehensive changes. The motto of the MANSORY engineers when redesigning
the engine was “evolution instead of revolution.” The leading idea was not
about making major changes to the SLR’s core. Rather, existing components
were swapped for modified developments by MANSORY itself. For example, use
is made of new high performance compressors and tailor-made intercoolers.
The finishing touches to the performance upgrade are a sports air filter and
modified engine management. As a result the Renovatio is two tenths faster
from zero to 100 km/h than the super sports car production model. The top
speed increases to 340 kph. Following the alterations the Renovatio has 700
PS and generates 880 Nm torque on the crankshaft.
Great looks and excellent roadholding
MANSORY provides a special wheel-tyre combination in exclusive design for
the requirements of the Renovatio. The one-piece turbine-wheels with five
double-spokes, 9 x 20 at the front and 11.5 x 20 at the rear, are impressive
thanks both to their sporting looks as well as their outstanding
workmanship. The reduction of the unsprung mass due to the especially light
forged wheels improves braking distance, acceleration and handling. For
maximum wheel grip MANSORY uses 255/30 Dunlop SP Sport Maxx tyres at the
front and 325/25 at the rear.
Exclusive interior design without limits
MANSORY has succeeded in creating the perfect symbiosis of sporting
functionality and luxurious environment. Only the very best materials have
been used in the interior and provide for well-being. The leather processed
by master craftsmen is especially hard-wearing and yet extraordinarily soft.
This characteristic natural product with its special grain and the perfect
craftsmanship of its decorative stitching convey an extravagant flair around
the redesigned airbag sports steering wheel. The aluminium pedals,
illuminated door tread plates and real carbon applications complete the
luxurious overall impression within the Renovatio.
