The 1971 W113 280 SL was the last of the 'pagoda' series - named after the profile of the detachable hardtop available for the car - which started in 1963 (with the 230 SL, and then 250 SL) following the famous 300 SL of gullwing fame, and the 190 SL. The Paul Bracq design well suited the car which had morphed from the ultra-high performance of the 300 SL and cruise style of the 190 SL to a comfortable position somewhere in the middle of the two. The 280 SL was powered by a 170 horsepower, 2.8-liter six, with both auto and manual transmission as options.
