The Mercedes-Benz SL (Sport Leicht) has
been in production since 1954 with perhaps the most influential
model being the W 113 Pagoda of 1963. This second generation evolved
from the 230 SL to 250 SL. finally becoming the 280 SL. The W 113 was
replaced by the W 107 in 1971 and as the engines became larger. the
bodywork and weight of the cars also increased - as often happens
in mid-life! The SL
improved through the years with technical innovation but still
managed to keep its fundamental character and identity of an
up-market quality sports car.
Its reputation went from strength to
strength and it was rare to see an episode of Dallas or Dynasty in
the 1980's without an SL making a star appearance. The genius
soft-top mechanism which folds down out of sight under a panel
ahead of the boot lid gave the car a beautifully sleek. uncluttered
appearance.
This stunning example has only
covered a mere 15. 00 miles and presents in immaculate condition.
The grey paintwork is unmarked and the interior in time-warp
condition. These 107 Mercedes have a reputation for being over
engineered and capable of travelling many miles trouble free. To be
expected. this 280 SL is described as driving with no known faults
and comes with a V 5 registration document. current Mo T test
certificate and a history file substantiating the low
mileage.
