Introduced in 1968, the Mercedes-Benz 280 SL represented the final and most developed iteration of the legendary W113 “Pagoda” series. Renowned for its elegant proportions, robust engineering, and effortless usability, it remains one of the most desirable classic Mercedes-Benz models ever produced.

This exceptional example has undergone a comprehensive nut-and-bolt restoration by Laro Sportwagen, and has been reimagined by the renowned German specialists LARO, carefully blending the timeless character of the original Pagoda with subtle modern enhancements.. Finished in a bespoke colour combination, the car presents to an exceptional standard throughout and benefits from a host of upgrades designed to improve comfort, refinement, and drivability.

At the heart of the transformation is a 3.3-litre engine upgrade, providing increased performance and flexibility whilst maintaining the character expected of a classic Mercedes-Benz. Complementing this are modern sound and thermal insulation materials, significantly improving cabin refinement, along with discreetly integrated air conditioning, allowing the car to be enjoyed comfortably in modern driving conditions.

Retaining the unmistakable styling that made the Pagoda an icon whilst benefiting from thoughtful engineering improvements, this LARO-restored 280 SL offers a unique opportunity to acquire a beautifully executed example that combines classic elegance with modern usability.

A highly desirable and exceptionally well-presented grand tourer, equally suited to concours lawns, weekend drives, or long-distance touring.
