First shown at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1963 as the 230SL, the W113 line was the widely popular successor to the 300SL Mercedes Gullwing – a legend even to this day. The new SL design incorporated a contemporary, bright, comfortable and spacious feel for its owners, and would see several variations throughout the years. These variations included the 230SL and the 250SL, with the last being the 280SL. The 1970 Mercedes Benz 280SL saw 7,935 units throughout its production year and was available in both a 2-door Roadster and 2-door Coupe. The 1970 Mercedes 280SL was bigger, wider and heavier than its predecessor and was the perfect auto for those buyers who sought driving comfort, road handling and quality of construction. Buyers also enjoyed having various engine options including a V-8 with either a 3.5 or 4.5-liter cylinder, or a six-cylinder engine with the capacity of 2.8 liters. Most models were equipped with an automatic transmission, and could reach a top speed of 121 mph. Today, many buyers turn to the 280SL for those same reasons.

“I called, described the car, took pictures, provided the Vin and title information and they got back to me in 24 hours. We agreed on a price, signed paperwork. They sent the money directly to my bank and they picked up the car the next day. Whole process took maybe 4 days. They have it down and are very professional.”
“My experience with the Alex Manos company was very positive. Things moved very fast after our initial contact. Their requests for information and pictures were reasonable and were easy to provide. They responded quickly with an initial offer and negotiations were finalized in a couple days. Once we had agreement, payment arrived in my bank account the next day; before they had received the title from me or picked up the car. That showed was very professional and demonstrated a trust in me which I appreciated. All my needs were met.”
