Replacing the iconic Mercedes-Benz 190SL and 300 SL is no easy feat; the German legends stole hearts while driving by on the motorway and powering through racetracks. What came after the iconic pair was the equally impressive Mercedes-Benz Pagoda, with a unique design and as the golden standard of German engineering driving off the dealership floors in those days was nothing but smiles. This well-preserved 1970 Mercedes- Benz 280SL Pagoda is present today in all its glory, with a reported 59,050 miles on the clock; this low mileage example is a near-factory example and yours to enjoy.
This 1970 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda isn't just a low mileage example but one that's been preserved exceptionally well over its lifetime; all this shows the moment you glance at the lovely white exterior. The body is in excellent condition, with original features such as the fishbowl headlights and iconic pagoda design cues all in great shape; even the chrome roof guards are in place, and in excellent condition to boot. The lovely original Mercedes-Benz hubcaps compete hard to steal attention too, and there’s reportedly a set of fresh whitewall tires for originality and safe running. While modern-day performance and practicality appeal to many modern buyers, you are lost in the pale colors and tech to keep you distracted. This 1970 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda distracts you in the most fascinating way possible. The olive green interior boasts leather seats and a lot of analog equipment to throw it back to the good old days; what tops this off is the current owner reporting that the car's interior is all original. Sit back and relax, and you are treated to the original AM/FM radio, and analog VDO clock serving as nice conversation pieces when driving about.
In terms of powertrain options, this 1970 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda sports the biggest powertrain on offer with the range. Under the hood of this German beauty is the legendary M130 (2.8L) inline six engines. The well-engineered engine provides practical classic car ownership that boasts a smooth drive feel. This car wants you to kick back and relax as you drive, and that's where the four-speed automatic transmission sends its power gently to the rear wheels, and power steering system comes in handy.
Like most Mercedes-Benz cars, the timeless SL series is known for retaining its value as soon as it rolled off the showroom floor. In contrast to the mass production of most cars during its era, the number of SLs manufactured was very small. Only 23,742 units were built from 1968 through 1971, with roughly half of this figure sold in the United States, making this 280SL a rare collectible. It famously used the same double A-frame suspension proven years ago on the legendary 300 SL. This Mercedes-Benz 280SL has been kept by the second owner from 1973 to the present and is reported to have been serviced on time throughout that period. With just 119,000 miles on the clock, this 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL awaits your ownership in Washington.
The Mercedes-Benz SL is the German automaker's pinnacle grand tourer. Buying an SL brand-new means that you've made it in life. With a rich history dating back to 1954, every SL tells a story. This particular 1985 Mercedes-Benz 280SL is no different. Hailing from the hallowed R107 generation, this car is a Euro model. Granted, it's got a healthy 108,640 miles on the odometer, but that's nothing for such a well-engineered car. Let's learn more about this R107 and why you should buy it.
It's commonplace for the remake of a movie, car, or song not to match the original; some things are best left the way they are. The W198 generation of Mercedes-Benz roadsters was built to perfection; it graced the pages of every automotive magazine and is a mainstay in many prestigious collections worldwide. Matching the W198 was a challenging task, but the success that was the W113 lived up to the challenge and was a love letter to classic open-top motoring. Up for sale, today is a lovely example of the W113 generation, and it looks like this 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280SL Convertible. With a reported 45,300 miles on the clock, this low mileage example is a numbers-matching vehicle and classic motoring done right.
The 1991 Mercedes-Benz 560SEL Sedan is from the second generation of the legendary Mercedes-Benz S-Class line. The W126 is so far the most successful and the longest in production generation of the iconic S-Class. The W126 project was led by Mercedes-Benz Chief designer Bruno Sacco who aimed to make the new S-Class more aerodynamic, efficient and retain the unmistakable design elements that makes the S-Class an S-Class. The weight was significantly cut down by extensive use of high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) sheets and polyurethane deformable material for the bumpers and side claddings. Lighter alloy material was used for the heavily revised 5.6-liter M117 V8 engine that this Mercedes-Benz 560SEL houses. It is also the biggest engine that you could have had with a W126 S-Class. Our featured car has a total of 80,000 miles on the odometer. We’re told this particular model has been treated to new parts and has had the front end completely rebuilt as reported by the current owner.
The Mercedes-Benz SL-Class was born as a sports car with no intention of developing into a street version. Two years later, a street-legal version was proposed for wealthy performance car enthusiasts, as the personal luxury car market was thriving at the time. A few decades later, the famed German automaker Mercedes-Benz commemorated the 60th anniversary of a memorable motor racing success. An extraordinary special model of the SL Roadster was unveiled to celebrate this milestone, and it was dubbed the "Mille Miglia," referring to the unexpected victory of a 300 SL in the production sports cars class in 1955. This example is a 2016 Mercedes-Benz SL550 Special Edition Mille Miglia 417 with 30,150 miles on its clock. This is your chance to experience the unique symbiosis of maximum comfort and motor-racing spirit that traditionally characterizes every SL.
If you want to own a luxury Mercedes-Benz that’s a classic but still relatively modern, you can’t go amiss with an R107 example. Made between 1971 and 1989, the R107 SL-Class is a Hollywood darling and a perfect example of what Mercedes-Benz can do when they set their minds on being the best. What’s more, this 1980 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is an excellent choice because it’s got a lovely fuel-injected V8 beneath the hood. Packing a mere 98,500 miles, the current owner says that the car has received a new battery and all-new tires too. So, it’s basically a buy-and-drive classic.
