Description

This beautiful 230 SL has been fully restored with great care and attention to detail since 2018. To this end, the car was literally dismantled down to the last bolt and then rebuilt with originality, technical perfection and durability as the guiding principles.

The result is a Pagoda that not only looks stunning, but has also been thoroughly addressed technically down to the finest detail.

Restoration to the highest standard

During the restoration, all components were carefully inspected. Where necessary, parts were replaced or completely overhauled. Original parts were re-chromed, yellow-passivated or given a high-quality powder coating, with particular attention to durable protection against corrosion.

The most important technical components were completely overhauled by specialised professionals, including:

  • engine
  • gearbox
  • differential
  • steering box
  • Bosch mechanical injection pump
  • front and rear axle
  • seats
  • instruments and gauges
  • and numerous other mechanical and body components

Matching Numbers & demonstrable originality

An important plus point for the true enthusiast and collector is that the car has matching numbers.

The engine, gearbox, Bosch injection pump, front and rear axle, handles, locks and other numbered components are demonstrably original and correspond with the details on the original Mercedes-Benz data card.

This means that the originality of this Pagoda is exceptionally well documented.

Fully documented restoration

Many hundreds of photos of the restoration are available. The entire process – from dismantling through to the final assembly – has therefore been extensively documented.

Following the restoration, the car was assembled, inspected and given a complete technical check by Pagoda specialist Van Dijk in Lisserbroek.

Barely driven since restoration

Since completion of the restoration, the 230 SL has driven only approximately 2,000 kilometres.

The first service after 1,000 kilometres has also now been carried out.

A Pagoda for the true enthusiast

This is not a car that was superficially restored simply to look good. It is a fully dismantled and extensively restored 230 SL, in which the technical, mechanical and often less visible components have also been thoroughly addressed.

The combination of:

1965 • 230 SL • fully restored • matching numbers • original Mercedes-Benz data card • extensive restoration documentation • assembled by a specialist • only approx. 2,000 km since restoration

makes this a particularly interesting Pagoda for the serious enthusiast, collector or Mercedes-Benz enthusiast.

Extensive photographic documentation of the restoration is available to interested parties.
