The new 230 SL sports car, quickly named “Pagoda” because of the shape of its hardtop, was a multi-talented car. It easily replaced the predecessor 190 SL. But it wasn’t a successor to the famous 300 SL. There was still a gap. The new SL should be a sports two-seater with high performance, optimal handling and high ride comfort. That’s exactly what this car was able to do. Thus the cars from the 250 SL to the 280 SL became the success story of the series. With this model development, Mercedes also implemented the automatic transmission on a broad basis.
Our Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Roadster was originally delivered in the USA and has been based in Germany since 1990. A renowned German specialist workshop completely restored it in 2004, a process that is extensively documented with photographs. This ‘Pagoda’ was the centrepiece of a classic car collection; it has covered only a few kilometres but has been meticulously maintained. Of course, there are also simply refurbished classic cars in this series, but those with high standards will find this model perfectly suited to their needs.
