In 1963, Mercedes replaced its original 'sports lights,' the 300SL and 190SL, with a new model, the 230. For one model year, 1967, Mercedes offered virtually the same car but with a new 2.5-liter inline six-cylinder engine with the same horsepower but more torque and renamed it the 250SL. For 1968, the engine was enlarged further to 2.8-liters, thus the 280SL, at which point some real performance was available.
This Thistle Green 1967 250SL has traveled only 38,000 miles since new and has undergone a complete restoration by Mercedes-Benz Classic USA, the automaker's own vintage car shop in southern California. | |
