RA Classics are pleased to offer for sale this stunning 1985 Mercedes-Benz 280SL.
This stunning example has just been treated to a full respray in classic “Diamond Blue”, in addition to a full refurbishment of cosmetic aspects such as the exterior chrome trim. The interior is original, receiving no more than a meticulous valet treatment which has returned it to fantastic condition.
The 280SL is a quintessential example of elegance and tactful style; offering an unrivalled level of comfort for a vehicle of this calibre, whilst also promising a driving experience which is engaging and enjoyable. The 2. 8L engine provides plenty of poke to capture the potential of a lovely sweeping B-road, whilst the smooth automatic gearbox and extremely accommodating ride promise to keep all occupants in a level of comfort that is unparalleled in a 2-seater sports car. Of course, the car’s ultimate versatility is provided by the removable hardtop roof which provides the comfort and insulation of a fully-fledged coupe when installed or can be (weather permitting) left at home to provide the incomparable experience of open-top motoring. Should you be caught out by a downpour without the hardtop, however; the 280SL also features a collapsible canopy soft-top roof in the bulkhead.
This quintessential “80’s Mercedes” maintains the charm of it’s decade of origin impeccably. The exterior styling retains its timeless aesthetic, amplified significantly by the fresh paint. The blue-check interior upholstery renders the car as attractive internally as it is externally, and serves to amplify this car's period appeal and character.
This stunning car is ultimately one of the most adaptable and practical classic sports-cars ever built, and this example is in a condition that few others can rival.
