The Grand Sport has extensive reinforcement beyond the standard Veyron.

MANSORY Renovatio, the ultimate makeover of Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren

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.
The top speed increases to 340 kph. Following the alterations the Renovatio
has 700 PS and generates 880 Nm torque on the crankshaft.

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
12.5 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.
