About This Mercedes-Benz 280SL

Beautiful 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL “Pagoda,” finished in factory Midnight Blue over a highly original interior. Originally sold new in Northbrook, IL, this example has been well maintained with over $12,000 invested in mechanical reliability since 2016. It is an excellent driver—smooth, stable, and confident in all conditions.

The paint has been professionally refreshed with a deep, glossy finish, while the chrome and trim remain in excellent original condition. The interior is largely original, with everything functioning as it should, including the original radio and controls. The dealer-installed A/C is present.

A turnkey, mechanically sorted classic that’s elegant, collectible, and ready to enjoy.
