The 280SL Roadsters are undoubtedly the sweet spot of the classic Mercedes-Benz model range. They remain attainable despite rapidly increasing values over recent years, in addition to being extremely stylish, and reliable enough to be used for pleasure frequently. The elegant and understated styling of these Roadsters, penned by designer and artist Paul Bracq, made the model a desirable accessory for young Hollywood celebrities in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
The magnificent 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL roadster featured here is finished in classic and highly desirable Ivory over Palomino interior; this particular car was produced in the last month production is among one of only 520 produced in the final year of 1971.
