1976 (R) Mercedes-Benz SL Series 280 SL

This 1968 UK-delivered RHD Mercedes W113 280SL Pagoda with a 4-speed manual gearbox, is presented in a gorgeous deep Blue metallic paint with matching factory hard-top, Tan MB-Tex interior, Tan carpets, a Navy soft-top.

It's truly an eyeful of restrained elegance, and its condition is a testament to the care and attention given to it by its last custodian of 18 years.

As a usable example of Mercedes' 1960's sports tourer, the paintwork is in truly splendid condition, and the chrome-work is beyond reproach.

Move to the interior, and everything is just as it should be. The wood veneers are in great condition, the switchgear is a joy, the dashboard features a Becker style stereo unit with Bluetooth, and the seats only carry the slightest of patina. There's also the addition of the rare and sought-after Kinder Seat in the rear.

Being in such lovely condition, it's clear that the car has been treated to an extensive restoration at some point, offering great value for a Pagoda in such enviable condition. 

On the move, the car delivers a relaxing yet sporting experience perfect for touring and long-distance motoring, with the factory Power Steering being a welcomed optional feature. The engine pulls strongly and the gearbox shifts smoothly.

The car is supported by a plethora of paperwork recording a history of extensive servicing and maintenance. Most notably, the engine was replaced in 1984 by the Mercedes Main Dealer, Glen Henderson of Stuttgart.

The car will be supplied with two sets of keys, a 12-month market-leading extendable warranty, a new no-advisory MOT, and prior to release, will be further subjected to our exhaustive Pre-Delivery Inspection.
