SLSHOP showroom listing

Overview of this Mercedes-Benz

Mercedes-Benz 280SL in Blue Metallic (387) with Navy Blue Soft Top, matching Hard Top and Cream Beige (304) interior.

Over the course of more than 18 months, this 280SL Pagoda was restored to exceptional levels, with as many original panels retained as possible to ensure authenticity of the data card. All mechanical components have been stripped, refurbished where necessary and replaced before the vehicle was correctly setup for driving.

SLSHOP’s engine setup regime ensures the fuel pressures and injection systems are optimised for on the button starts in all temperatures. Similarly, the ride is adjusted to give the refined grand tourer glide, but with a firmness that enables spirited cornering when desired. The throttle is sharpened to provide proper responsiveness.

This vehicle was sold prior to listing in January 2023. For similar examples pending arrival at SLSHOP, contact [email protected]

History:

Formerly owned by Harvey Hinsley of renowned UK pop soul band, Hot Chocolate, this 280SL has been completely restored to unrivalled standards.
