Vehicle Description
This 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL has been with the same owner since
1971 - a remarkable 52-year relationship that speaks volumes about
its quality. The Arabian Grey exterior radiates German engineering
excellence, amplified by subtle red pinstriping. The removable
hardtop matches the body color while a blue convertible top offers
open-air options. Rolling on 14-inch Mercedes wheels wrapped in
185/75R14 tires, this SL displays its authentic Mercedes-Benz
styling from every angle.
The brown leather interior exemplifies Mercedes' dedication to
luxury. The bucket seats offer excellent support, while the
floor-mounted shifter and center console create an engaging cockpit
layout. Power steering adds to the refined driving experience, and
the Becker radio provides entertainment. The leather upholstery,
matched with quality carpeting and trim, delivers classic Mercedes
sophistication.
The 2.8L inline-six engine pairs with a 4-speed automatic
transmission, creating an expertly engineered powertrain. The
dual-to-single exhaust system produces a refined note. Four-wheel
power disc brakes provide strong stopping capability. Regular
maintenance documented since the 1970s demonstrates this SL's
meticulous care throughout its life.
