Vehicle Description

1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL ? Final Year of the Iconic ?Pagoda?
Offered here is a stunning and exceptionally original 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL, finished in factory Horizon Blue on body, hard top, and interior ? beautifully complemented by the original blue soft top.
This rare and elegant factory color combination enhances the car?s already graceful presence, making it a true standout among W113 models.
With just 45,000 original miles, this car has been lovingly maintained by the same owner for the past 21 years.
Always garage-kept and only driven on weekends, it has seen a life of care and preservation rather than use and wear.
Equipped with the original automatic transmission, power steering, and factory Becker Europa radio, this 280 SL retains its authentic character.
Importantly, the transmission was recently rebuilt, ensuring smooth performance and long-term reliability.
In 2024, it also received tasteful updates including new tires, wheels, hubcaps, and a new and correct steering wheel, along with a restored wood trim that adds a refined finish to the cabin.
The braking system was also recently serviced, further ensuring that the car performs just as beautifully as it looks.
This is a collector-quality example of the final-year 280 SL, offered with its factory specification intact, excellent ownership history, and timeless appeal.
This Horizon Blue Pagoda is ready for its next caretaker ? and its next chapter.
