Description
Here we have a beautiful Mercedes-Benz 280 SL, commonly known as the Pagoda. This car has had £1000's spent on it to get it to the condition it is in today. There are many invoices, from 2016-2019, for work done by the owner including a full mechanical overhaul as well as photos of bodywork, the full respray and details on the customisation of the car such as the cream leather upholstery. The owner has also provided a history of his time with the car and the process from buying the car in 2016 to getting it to where it is now. These are highly sought after and are becoming quite a rarity, especially as it is a factory right-hand drive version. The engine is wonderfully smooth and the 2. 8 litre, straight-6 sounds glorious; putting most modern cars to shame. This car comes with a soft top and a hard top as well as a colour coordinated interior and exterior. The belts have been colour matched with the lovely burgundy body work and we have very soft cream leather seats with beige carpet and mats. The dashboard panel also matches the burgundy paintwork which makes this a very smart 280 SL. This car has a custom Marshall Bluetooth Speaker, also colour matched in cream leather and has the added benefit of power-assisted steering, a transverse jump seat and the popular 4-speed automatic gearbox. The 280sl is a very sought after car and they are becoming more and more of a collectors item. This one has had extensive work done with invoices and images to corroborate but there is still room for improvement. It is a useable car with the benefit of being in the Historic Vehicle Tax class, as well as coming under classic car insurance parameters. It's a great opportunity to own a piece of Mercedes-Benz history
