Mercedes W113 Servicing
To get the best out of your Pagoda, you need reliability and dependability. These two factors will get the best out of your SL, but first we must get to know the car in detail. Therefore, we offer a health check-based W113 servicing schedule for your Pagoda, which begins with our comprehensive check list.
Our health check is structured like an MOT test, but goes above and beyond basic requirements. We’ll give you a conclusive document covering 300 key points, so absolutely everything is addressed. This isn’t just limited to mechanical components, but also covers interior fittings and trim. This health check is performed in our service bay, on the ramps, and out on the open road. Here, the car will be driven by experts with real hands-on experience of the Pagoda, so you can be sure your beloved Pagoda is getting the attention it deserves.
From there, you’ll sit down with Bruce to discuss what’s next for you and your Pagoda. It may be a simple Mercedes 113 servicing or a more detailed plan of action and work.
With our experience and expertise, we are ideally placed to get beneath the skin of your Pagoda and bring out its true colours. Above all, we love working with these classics and have a passion for them!
Servicing Options
There was a time when tatty Pagodas would arrive once a year for an annual service, but those days are long gone. When it comes to Pagodas, we split our time between caring for excellent examples and helping Pagoda owners better understand what they’ve got. Some of our customers have owned these cars for decades, and are only now starting to approach remedial work on these cars.
No matter what state your Pagoda is in, we’d love to help you make the most of it. Whether it’s perfect or in pieces, we can help. Starting with an oil and filter change, of course!
113 Pagoda Setup
As custodians of these cars, we take pride in showing owners what a properly prepared Pagoda is capable of. Interestingly, values have doubled in recent times. But part of what we do is address areas that were neglected during the downward curve of the model’s depreciation.
Most importantly, we help owners to compare the Pagoda they’ve got with the Pagoda they want. Despite being fixed, even restored cars can fail to drive the way they should. With a Pagoda, a car that runs well requires more than just a rebuilt engine. Undoubtedly, the fuelling, ignition, gearbox, and suspension all contribute to the finished package. Through years of expert knowledge and experience with these cars, we can show you what a Pagoda should feel like.
SLSHOP Craftsmanship
Ultimately, the quality of a finished piece lies in the strength of the craftsmanship throughout. Therefore, we apply the same detail to every aspect of your build and restoration. Not only does this include the final fitment of chrome, but everything from the way we bolt the seats to the paintwork. After all, with our years of experience, we know these cars well enough to understand how the little details fit the big picture.
