Photo overview  -  Technical data  -  Information

The Mercedes 280 SL, 350 SL and 450 SL are the successors of the 230 SL, 250 SL and 280 SL as we know under the nickname "Pagoda". The "Pagoda was built from the year 1963 until the year 1971, the year the new SL generation was presented to the market.  Again Mercedes-Benz achieved to create a timeless design with slick, proper lines. In this shape the SL was sold for over twenty years.
The "new" generation Mercedes SL is bigger, wider and heavier than its predecessor but again it was a perfect car considering construction, road holding and driving-comfort.
The Mercedes-Benz SL was built with several engines. the buyer had to choose between a V8 with 3.5 or 4.5 liter cylinder capacity or a six cylinder engine with a cylinder capacity of 2.8 liter.
The SL was standard equipped with a soft-top which could neatly be stowed away under a lid fully integrated in the car. Optionally the SL could be fitted with a hard-top. The hardtop can easily be fitted to the car, in a couple of minutes, with the soft-top down in place.
