This 1967 Mercedes-Benz 250 SL Pagoda is one of the rarest and most desirable variants in the iconic W113 series. Produced for less than a year, the 250 SL strikes a sweet spot between the spirited character of early SLs and the refinement of later models. It features the lively handling and firm suspension of its predecessors, now paired with upgraded rear disc brakes, improved agility, and an increased fuel tank capacity – making it a joy to drive on both long and short journeys.
Finished in elegant Silver and presented in beautifully maintained condition, this car is full of charm and period character. It’s ideal for collectors and enthusiasts alike, with its classic “Pagoda” silhouette, iconic styling, and that smooth, era-appropriate automatic gearbox. It’s the perfect summer cruiser, stored carefully under cover and only driven in good weather by the current owner.
With a lovely colour, a rich history, and just 61, 416 miles from new – this 250 SL is true driving pleasure.
