Presenting a pristine 1970 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Pagoda (W113)
There's not much quite like the timeless elegance of a Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Pagoda, resplendent in a classic Beige hue. Cherished by its current owner for an astounding 44 years, this beauty boasts the distinction of only having had two owners since it left the showroom & the condition is fantastic!
Equipped with an Automatic Transmission and Power Steering, this Pagoda offers a driving experience that effortlessly marries comfort and performance. It comes complete with both Hard and Soft Hoods, ensuring adaptability to any weather condition.
A bespoke Tonneau Cover adds a touch of exclusivity, featuring a separate division for the discerning driver. The Stainless Steel Exhaust System reflects the meticulous care this vehicle has received, with no expense spared in its maintenance. Service has been entrusted exclusively to Mercedes-Benz and Mercedes SL specialists, along with approved Mercedes Dealers, guaranteeing the highest standard of care.
This exceptional Pagoda has garnered a collection of awards, including prestigious National Concours accolades, and currently stands in impeccable Concours condition. Acquired in 1979, the present owner enlisted the expertise of A.E Ledger Coachworks, a distinguished local restoration authority, for a comprehensive body restoration and repaint, meticulously adhering to MB specifications and original color schemes.
A cavity injection of protective Wax, enhanced with an electrolytic treatment, ensures longevity and steadfast adhesion. All underbody surfaces were generously coated with a specialized 'black' wax boasting similar electrolytic properties, further fortified with self-repairing capabilities.
The 'Soft Top' has been thoughtfully replaced with original MB materials, while the 'Hard Top' headlining has received a meticulous refurbishment. The interior woodwork has been artfully restored by P.K Veneering, showcasing a seamless blend of craftsmanship and heritage.
Recent enhancements include a comprehensive service and inspection by a renowned Mercedes SL Specialist, encompassing crucial elements such as brakes, headlamps, and more. A Top-End Engine overhaul, performed by a Mercedes Approved Service Dealer, has been undertaken within the last 300 miles, ensuring peak performance and reliability.
With its next MOT due on 28/06/2024, this masterpiece carries a part service history, attesting to its continuous care and reverence. This 1970 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Pagoda stands as a testament to automotive artistry and devotion, now seeking its next discerning owner to continue its legacy.Call our Sales Team for more information.
