1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL W113

In the early 1960s, Mercedes designer Paul Braq combined "the best of both worlds" in the W113.

His design was both visually "Italian," light and elegant, but also executed with the German solidity and engineering expertise expected of the brand.

The Mercedes W113 demonstrated its full potential in its top-of-the-line 2.8-liter engine.

The six-cylinder engine with multi-point fuel injection offered not only excellent dynamics,

but also exceptional smoothness and high reliability.

Dubbed the "Pagoda" after the distinctive shape of its roof, it was another important step in building

the reputation of the entire "SL" model line.

Our offer has just been expanded with this excellent example.
