Mercedes-Benz W113 Pagoda: Model history, technical data & buyer’s guide Thinking of buying a Mercedes SL W113? The Pagoda is one of the most desirable classic Mercedes-Benz roadsters, but condition and originality matter. Corrosion, incomplete restorations, incorrect details, and neglected mechanical components can turn an attractive example into a costly project. This large-format full-color reference, updated in 2025, combines more than 20 pages of practical buying advice with the complete model history, technical development, chassis number and data card information, original paint and interior options, and high-quality color photography throughout. Written by Bernd S. Koehling, author of more than 20 Mercedes-Benz books, it covers: A Detailed Buyer’s Guide More than 20 pages covering the most important areas to inspect before buying a W113, including bodywork and corrosion, previous restoration work, engines, transmissions, suspension, interior, soft top, originality, and other points where costs can rise quickly. The Complete Model Range Detailed coverage of the 230SL, 250SL, and 280SL, including the technical changes introduced during the production period. The Development of the Pagoda The story behind the W113, its distinctive concave hardtop, its safety engineering, and the contribution of Paul Bracq and the Daimler-Benz design team. Technical Reference Information Chassis numbers, data cards, technical specifications, production figures, original paint colors, interior options, and other useful details for owners, restorers, and prospective buyers. Coachbuilt and Unusual Variants Rare special-bodied versions, coachbuilt one-offs, and other individual interpretations of the Pagoda SL. Historical Background and Competition A closer look at Karl Wilfert and the Mercedes-Benz design tradition, contemporary impressions of the W113, and the lesser-known competition history of the Pagoda. Whether you are considering the purchase of a W113, restoring one, or simply appreciate the qualities of the Pagoda SL, this book provides a detailed and practical guide to its history, technology, and enduring appeal. Few roadsters have combined elegance, engineering, and quiet sophistication as naturally as the W113.
