German first delivery & matching numbers
This Mercedes-Benz 280 SL Pagoda was first registered in Sulzbach, Germany, in 1970 and has been registered in Germany continuously since delivery. A total of three previous owners are documented. Since 2005, the vehicle has been in the possession of the current owner, who has carefully maintained and preserved the Pagoda over many years.
In 2008, the car was professionally restored with great attention to detail and very good original condition. The engine was overhauled and the bodywork was professionally repainted from white to black. No rust or accident damage was detected during the restoration work. The bodywork is still in its original condition today and impresses with its exceptionally good substance. The vehicle is matching numbers. The interior is in very good condition with original black leather. The carpets and soft top have been renewed and blend harmoniously into the authentic overall picture.
