Enclosed Transport for Mercedes-AMG Press Fleet

Background:
Mercedes-Benz UK required the secure and time-sensitive transportation of 22 high-value AMG press and demo vehicles from their headquarters to Silverstone Circuit’s Wing complex for a dedicated media event. Following the event, all vehicles were to be returned in showroom condition.

Logistics Overview

• Collection Point: Mercedes-Benz UK HQ
• Delivery Location: The Wing, Silverstone Circuit
• Fleet Composition: 22 Mercedes-AMG GT Coupés and other AMG performance models
• Transport Method: Fully enclosed, multi-car transporters
• Partner: Russells Automotive Logistics

Why Enclosed Transport?

• Protection from the elements (rain, road debris, UV exposure)
• Discreet movement of pre-release or high-profile models
• Controlled loading/unloading for low-clearance AMG models
• Brand integrity: Ensuring vehicles arrive in immaculate condition for press coverage and demonstration

Execution

• Russells Automotive deployed a fleet of specialist enclosed car carriers, each with adjustable ramps and lift systems designed to accommodate low-slung performance cars.
• A single-day, synchronized collection was executed at the Mercedes-Benz UK HQ to ensure all vehicles arrived at Silverstone together.
• Vehicles were delivered directly to The Wing paddock area, where they were positioned by the logistics team for press access, test drives, and media display.

Return & Post-Event Logistics

• Following the conclusion of the event, all 22 vehicles were reloaded with care and precision.
• The return journey was carried out overnight to meet scheduling demands and limit road exposure.
• Vehicles were delivered back to Mercedes-Benz UK in the same pristine condition as collected, ready for future deployment.
