Preservation records that stay put
A W126 restoration is worth more documented than remembered. Specs, work done, parts sourced and photos live on the car in the owner’s garage, not scattered across chat history.

Mercedes-Benz clubs, classics through AMG
A W124 owners’ group and an AMG group want almost opposite things: one is a preservation community with parts leads and slow touring, the other is a performance club that wants Sepang. Both are Mercedes-Benz clubs, and both need running.
What changes
What Apex Drive does for Mercedes-Benz
Touring runs with a real sweep
Long-distance touring is where a sweep car matters most. Live lead and sweep tracking, ETA-to-checkpoint and radio keep a slow convoy intact over a few hundred kilometres.
Sponsors, handled in-app
Workshops and parts suppliers sponsor clubs like this constantly. Sponsor placements and payouts sit in the Admin Studio instead of an informal arrangement nobody has written down.
Why this is worth fixing
Clubs built around older Mercedes-Benz models run on institutional knowledge — who has the right trim piece, which workshop will touch a hydropneumatic suspension, what a good example actually costs. That knowledge normally lives with three long-standing members and evaporates when they step back. Putting cars, builds and club records in one place is not glamorous, but it is the difference between a club with a history and a club that restarts every few years.
- Live lead, you and sweep positions with distance and ETA-to-checkpoint
- Hold-to-send SOS on every plan, free included — it is never paywalled
- Applications reviewed against a real garage, never charged before approval
- Club dues go to the club, not to Apex Drive
FAQ
Mercedes-Benz — questions people ask
Does a club need every member on a paid plan?
No. Owners, members and staff can stay on Free Driver. The club operates under its own one-time Club License.
Can we run more than one chapter?
Yes. Purchase one Club License for each club. A license stays attached when its club is archived, unarchived or transferred.
