1971 Mercedes Benz 280 SL (Pagoda)
The Mercedes-Benz 280SL (W113), affectionately known for its distinct, slight concave "Pagoda" roof. This example represents an everyday driver, yet is still an investment-grade collector car. Powered by its original 2.8-liter M130 inline-six paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission, this final-year Pagoda delivers 170 horsepower through Bosch mechanical fuel injection — the perfect balance of elegance and engineering precision.
SVJ Auto Group successfully brokered the confidential sale of this pristine vehicle on behalf of our client, ensuring every detail of its history and originality was represented with accuracy and care.
