This 1968 Mercedes-Benz 280SL sports a sleek Gray Blue Metallic finish that captures the essence of 1960s European luxury. The paint, while not original, showcases the car's timeless lines and elegant proportions. European-style headlights add a touch of continental flair, while the folding blue cloth soft top and matching removable hard top provide versatility for all weather conditions. The 14-inch wheels with hubcaps maintain the period-correct look, wrapped in 185HR14 90H tires that provide a solid connection to the road. Chrome accents around the car gleam against the metallic paint, emphasizing the 280SL's refined design language. Inside, the beige leather bucket seats offer both comfort and style, complemented by a matching interior that appears correct and in excellent condition. The floor-mounted shifter and center console add a sporty touch to the luxurious cabin. An aftermarket air conditioning system has been seamlessly integrated, providing modern comfort without compromising the vintage aesthetic. The Becker Europa radio remains in place, preserving the authentic feel of the era. Coco-style floor mats add a touch of period-correct luxury, while the rear parcel area features a sideways jump seat, a charming detail that speaks to the car's versatility. Powering this classic roadster is a 2.8-liter inline-six engine, paired with a desirable 4-speed manual transmission. The combination offers a engaging driving experience, allowing full control over the car's performance. Power disc brakes at all four corners provide confident stopping power, while the coil spring suspension with shocks and a sway bar up front ensures a balanced ride. The exhaust system produces a refined note befitting a luxury sports car and a partial tool kit is included, adding to the car's authenticity and practicality for the next enthusiast owner.
