1969 Mercedes 280SL Pagoda Auto LHD

Chassis number: 11304412007715
Registration number: SJW115G

A superb & very original low mileage car in Left Hand Drive. The car was shipped new to Canada where it stayed for 10 years seeing summer use only. Upon arriving in the UK the car was owned by a gentleman in South Devon. who meticulously maintained the car at Rogers Garage in Paignton. There were are too many invoice to photograph so we merely pictured a selection of them. An MOT from 1982 shows the mileage at 23. 57.

After the owners passing in 1997 the car was stored for many years until being disinterred from its garage slumber in 2006. The paint had faded so a bare metal respray was done to a very high standard in its original color of maroon. Pleasingly the Parchment upholstery has been retained & is in first rate order throughout. The interior wood work has been removed & re-lacquered to as new. Recent works include fitting a new black mohair hood.

The car was sent after its long lay up to marque specialists Roger Edwards Motors to be thoroughly serviced including a new set of brake pads. service and calibration of the fuel injections system. service and set up of the gearbox as well as other sundry items. Once the service work was completed the car went to Kevin O'Keefe to be fitted with its current new black hood.

A further 3000 miles have been added by the current equally fastidious owner to bring the recorded total up to 26. 32. It is very difficult to find such cars in this condition with low mileage & always having been garage kept. The car drives beautifully. starting instantly. pulling strongly through the gears which all engage seamlessly. The hard to p is easily removed for summer use. yet leaves the car snug when in cooler weather.

To sum up what we have here is a low mileage car in superb order throughout preserving a lot of its originality. It needs nothing. drives beautifully & is ready for extended use.
