The 280 SL W113 Pagoda was produced from December 1967 to February 1971. Over the years, the W 113 evolved from a sports car into a comfortable grand tourer, and were by then usually equipped with the 4-speed automatic transmission and air conditioning. Manual transmission models came with the standard 4-speed or the optional ZF 5-speed. In Europe, manual transmissions without air conditioning were still the predominant choice. The engine was the 2,778 cc M130 engine with 170 bhp and 180 ft/lbs of torque. The performance improvement was achieved by increasing bore by 4.5 mm (0.2 in), an oil-cooler was fitted vertically next to the radiator. Each engine was now bench-tested for two hours prior to being fitted. Of the 23,885 280 SLs produced, more than half were sold in the US.

A rare and desirable example of a 280SL with Manual Gearbox. It also comes with its Hard Top, which is said to be in very good condition.
