1967 Mercedes-Benz 250SL "Pagoda" – A Rare and Properly Maintained Classic

This exceptional 1967 Mercedes-Benz 250SL, part of the iconic W113 "Pagoda" series, has been owned by just two families since new and is now available for the first time in over 40 years. Accompanied by extensive documentation, including its original purchase agreement, service records, and books, this 250SL represents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-preserved and highly collectible classic.

Of the 48,912 W113 SLs produced between 1963 and 1971, fewer than 5,200 were 250SL models, making this example particularly desirable. With its Ivory finish, stunning red interior, and a host of period-correct features, this 250SL is a true standout.

Key Features

• Exterior: A high-quality repaint, complemented by excellent chrome trim and a signature Pagoda hardtop in matching Ivory. The convertible top is also in excellent condition.
• Interior: A beautifully restored red leather interior with matching red carpeting and wood trim. The dashboard and instrument cluster remain in excellent condition.
• Engine: The 2.5-liter fuel-injected inline-6 engine runs smoothly, with a recently rebuilt fuel injector pump and new injectors. It delivers power for modern highway speeds as well as for spirited driving on winding roads.
• Transmission: A 4-speed manual transmission enhances the driving experience.
• Comfort & Safety: Equipped with Kuhlmeister air conditioning (requires servicing), power-assisted steering, and power disc brakes. All safety features, including lights, wipers, turn signals, and the horn, are fully functional.
• Extras: Includes both the Pagoda hardtop and convertible soft top, a storage stand, and a rare third seat.

Documented Provenance

This 250SL’s history is meticulously documented, beginning with its original purchase from a San Diego Mercedes-Benz dealership. It remained with its first owner in California before being acquired by its second California owner whose family subsequently moved it to Virginia.

Why the 250SL?

The 250SL is widely regarded as one of Mercedes-Benz’s most sought-after sports cars, combining timeless design, engineering excellence, and driving pleasure. Its limited production numbers and enduring appeal make it not only a joy to drive but also a sound investment.

Whether cruising with the top down or enjoying the snug fit of the hardtop, this 250SL delivers an authentic and exhilarating driving experience reminiscent of the Autobahn.
