In 1963 Mercedes-Benz introduced the 230/250/280 SL Pagoda as the successor to the famous 300/190 SL Series. This 280 SL is presented here as attributed to Paul Bracq who designed it, a Frenchman who was appointed Head of Advanced Design at Mercedes in 1957 when he was only 24 years old. In 1970, Paul Bracq joined BMW and was responsible for their most important designs of the period.
The 280SL is considered the most desirable of this series. It has a 2778cc 6-cylinder fuel-injected engine developing 170 horsepower at 5750 RPM with a top speed of 120 mph. Its gearbox is a rare four-speed manual. These cars were icons of the 1960s and were owned by many notable people including Formula 1 drivers like J.M. Fangio, Sterling Moss, and David Coulhard.
