- convertible 17,300 gasoline automatic
The paul bracq-designed mercedes-benz 113 series succeeded both the 190sl and the 300sl, and made its public debut at the 1963 geneva auto show. Instantly recognizable by virtue of their unique and strong detachable hardtop design, the cars were colloquially known as “pagodas”. The well-balanced chassis was designed by rudi uhlenhaut and based on a solid unit-body platform. Initially, magazine road testers bemoaned the relatively soft spring rates and 150 horsepower rating of the 230sl, but became believers when uhlenhaut himself drove a 230sl to lap times that were only 0. 2 seconds slower than those of a ferrari 250gt! Furthermore, a 230sl won the prestigious spa-sofia-liège rally in 1963. In true mercedes-benz fashion, the 113 series cockpit is comfortable, well-appointed and weather proof, and the car’s construction and attention to detail is consistent with renowned mercedes-benz standards. This magnificent motorcar is finished in stunning light ivory with an impeccably-kept original black mb-tex interior and matching convertible top. It has been driven just 17,300 miles from new and it shows! This us version is fitted with all available options, including both hard top and soft top, factory air conditioning, power steering, power brakes, becker am/fm radio, as well as its original books and tools. Classic cars have proven to be among the most resilient and rewarding investments in recent years with the historic automobile group index (hagi) jumping 39% in 2013 and posting gains of 395-percent over the last 10-years. Buy with confidence; this just might be one of the best finds on the market! AM/FM✔ Air Conditioning
