1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.1) based on 253 votes
There is no doubt that the Mercedes-Benz 280SL "Pagoda" is a handsome car. especially when finished in a delightful colour combination like this with Ivory coachwork (not white). a contrasting Blue Hard Top and a lovely Blue interior.

The instruments and dials throughout the cabin are in first class order. as are the brand new carpets. seatbelts and belt clasps.

The engine bay is authentic and clearly well preserved. but not unnecessarily restored. Working parts carry a reassuring tinge of grease and there's little sign of the car having been detailed in a bid to deceive.

It works as it should and looks as it should; the perfect recipe.

No fewer than 18 stamps adorn the service book tracing this car's history from 1968 and suggesting. a believed genuine. total mileage of fewer than 55. 00.

This little 280SL presents exceptionally well. perhaps better than many restored cars we see.
The boot floor is the best this scribe has seen. which for an unrestored car speaks volumes about the care and dedication that this one has enjoyed.
The colour combination is timeless and stylish. and the overall feeling from the car is one of deep honesty and charm.
The soft-top roof is nearly new and fits snugly. the hard-top. though unrestored is in very good order too. Furthermore. this Pagoda is shod with four new Vredestein Classic Tyres. as is the boot mounted spare.
We're pleased that this car is accompanied by a full complement of tools. handbooks etc
A very presentable 280SL Pagoda. ready to offer its next custodian a fine investment
