1967 Mercedes-Benz 250 SL Pagoda W113
Genuine UK-Supplied Right-Hand Drive Example
We are delighted to offer this beautiful 1967 Mercedes-Benz 250 SL Pagoda W113, a genuine UK-supplied right-hand-drive example with just four former keepers from new.
Having been cherished by its previous owner for the last nine years, the car has benefited from considerable expenditure over the years, including an earlier restoration completed to a very good standard. A comprehensive photographic history accompanies the vehicle, documenting much of the restoration work carried out.
More recently, the Pagoda has undergone an extensive programme of refurbishment and recommissioning to bring it to the excellent standard in which it is offered today.
Recent Works
The car has recently received a professional glass-out repaint in Mercedes-Benz Metallic Blue Code 906, a colour that perfectly complements the elegant lines of the W113.
The interior has been completely refurbished in blue leather and presents extremely well throughout. A new blue soft top has also been fitted, completing what is a very attractive and timeless colour combination these works for done within the last couple of years by the previous owner to a very high standard.
The engine bay has also received significant attention, with numerous components removed, refurbished and professionally polished. The result is a clean, detailed and very well-presented engine compartment that complements the quality of the rest of the car.
Importantly, no corrosion was uncovered during the recent works, further reflecting the quality of the previous restoration.
Driving Experience
Perhaps most importantly, this Pagoda drives beautifully. The engine performs exactly as it should, the gearbox changes smoothly, and the car feels tight, refined and well sorted on the road.
All gauges, instruments, switches, lights and ancillary equipment are in working order, allowing the next owner to simply get in and enjoy the car, whether for touring, classic car events or relaxed weekend drives.
According to the available history, the vehicle is believed to have covered approximately 55, 000 miles from new. During an earlier restoration, the odometer was reset to zero, since when approximately 33, 000 miles have been recorded details of previous services and book pack with the car .
Condition
This is not a concours car, nor is it being advertised as one. It is, however, a extremely well-presented Pagoda that has clearly been cared for and sympathetically improved over many years.
The paintwork, chrome, bodywork, interior and engine bay all present extremely well, making this a car that will be enjoyed and appreciated wherever it goes.
Professional photographs have now been completed, and the vehicle is available for immediate viewing.
