Mercedes Benz 280SL
SoldSpecification
Further Information
Considered by many to be of the best looking Mercedes-Benz produced to date, the SL of this era is undoubtedly an iconic classic.
This particular example has had only 3 keepers from new and benefits from an itemised refurbishment recently undertaken by Aston Workshop.
Complete with an extensive history file, this lovely, original looking SL is presented in timeless Champagne Gold metallic, with matching interior and Brown hood.
As can be seen from our photographs (of the actual car for sale) this 280SL really does evoke the period beautifully and thanks to the famous build quality associated with Mercedes, it’s a classic that could be used as everyday transport if desired.
Specification includes:
“Bundt” style Alloy wheels
Central door locking
Automatic gearbox
Power steering
Period Blaupunkt stereo cassette radio
Walnut effect finish to centre console and dash
Over mats
Electric windows
Remote mirrors
Spare wheel
Front head rests
As with many classics from the 1980s, SL values have risen consistently over recent years, and they are becoming increasingly sought after by enthusiasts and collectors alike.
Taxed and ready to be enjoyed over the coming spring and summer months, early viewing is highly recommended.
