car description

For sale is an exceptionally well-maintained 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Pagoda, originally delivered in Switzerland, resplendent in the rare and elegant Blue Metallic 906 color. The original Swiss vehicle registration document is available, making it easy to reimport this classic back to Switzerland without major hassle.

This model is in its fourth ownership and has been with its last, exceptionally attentive owner for 18 years. The car has been regularly serviced and is in immaculate, fully documented condition with a complete service history. Its original, verifiable mileage and matching numbers add tremendous value, making it especially desirable for collectors and enthusiasts.

The older Blue Metallic paintwork lends a timeless elegance to the Pagoda. The interior is entirely untouched and remains in its original, authentic state—a true gem for connoisseurs.

Thanks to regular maintenance and meticulous care, the vehicle is in outstanding condition, both technically and aesthetically. A classic that is always ready for stylish outings or as a valuable addition to an exclusive collection.

History of the series

The top model of the SL series W 113 produced 170 hp from its 2.8 l displacement. As the successor to the 190 SL series, it fulfilled the wishes of many customers for more power and comfort. Due to the smooth running of the large in-line six-cylinder engine, the Pagoda also offered exceptionally good cruising qualities, making it a pleasant companion on rallies & trips.

The safety measures, which were new and trend-setting for the time, ensure a relaxed feeling. These included a defused interior without corners and edges, seat belts as special equipment and defined crumple zones.

The designation "pagoda" was given to it by the vernacular, as the concave roof resembles temples from the Far East - pagodas, in fact. Yet the shape was originally intended rationally as an improvement in the amount of space available.
