Vodafone McLaren Mercedes motor racing star Jenson Button picked up his exclusive Mercedes-Benz C-Class DR 520 Estate car from Mercedes-Benz World on 24 August 2010. The reigning 2009 Formula One™ World Champion has snapped up one of only twenty DR 520s made, and they are only available from the ‘Specialist Products Division’ at Mercedes-Benz World.
