1969' Mercedes-Benz Sl Class

The Mercedes-Benz W113 series was produced from 1963 to 1971.
A total of around 48, 912 copies were made.
The W113 replaced the R121 in 1963 and was succeeded by the R107 in 1971. Chief designers were Paul Bracq and Béla Barényi.
Available was the 230 SL (1963–1967), the 250 SL (1967) and the 280 SL (1968–1971), with manual gearbox or automatic transmission.
Almost all models were supplied with a soft top as standard, but a hard top was available as an option. The hardtop had a curved shape like a Chinese pagoda roof, which is why the W113 is also popularly called 'Pagode'. Also available was a 2+2 coupe with a hard top, with a folding bench instead of the soft top cupboard.
