Mercedes-Benz 230 SL cabriolet avec hardtop 1965

Châssis n° 113042 10 014270

Moteur n° 127981 10 011258

Blanche avec hardtop, capote noire, intérieur habillé de M-B Tex et transmission manuelle, cette remarquable 230 SL à la belle allure, a quitté l'usine le 26 novembre 1965. Modèle jalon qui a initié une dynastie de sportives qui allait s'avérer un énorme succès commercial pour Mercedes-Benz, la 230 SL a été présentée au Salon de Genève en mars 1963. Remplaçante de la 190 SL, la nouvelle venue abandonnait le quatre cylindres pour un six cylindres 2,3 litres à injection de 150 ch.

Classique dès sa présentation, la carrosserie était entièrement nouvelle, alors que sous la tôle on trouvait l'habituel train roulant Mercedes-Benz, avec suspension indépendante aux quatre roues (par essieu oscillant à l'arrière), freins à disques à l'avant/tambours à l'arrière et le choix entre transmission manuelle à quatre rapports ou automatique. La vitesse maximale dépassait les 190 km/h. Surnommées « Pagode » en raison de la forme particulière de leur pavillon, ces SL font partie des sportives de tourisme les plus appréciés de leur époque et continuent d'être très recherchées par les collectionneurs.

La voiture que nous proposons a subi une restauration complète de sa carrosserie et de sa mécanique entre 2009 et 2013, documentée par de nombreuses photographies. La voiture se présente toujours dans un bel état et a reçu la certification ASI « Oro ». Une documentation additionnelle comprend une déclaration de Mercedes-Benz Italie, des papiers d'immatriculation italien et le Certificato di Identita ASI mentionné ci-dessus, ainsi que les photographies de sa restauration.

1965 Mercedes-Benz 230 SL Convertible with Hardtop

Chassis no. 113042 10 014270

Engine no. 127981 10 011258

Beautifully finished in white with matching hardtop, black soft-top and matching M-B Tex interior, this stunning, manual transmission 230 SL left the factory on 26th November 1965. A landmark model that founded a sports car dynasty that would prove an enormous commercial success for Mercedes-Benz, the 230 SL was introduced at the Geneva Salon in March 1963. Replacement for the 190 SL, the newcomer abandoned its predecessor's four-cylinder engine in favour of a 2.3-litre fuel-injected six producing 150bhp.

An instant classic, the body design was all-new, while beneath the skin the running gear was conventional Mercedes-Benz, featuring all-round independent suspension (by swing axles at the rear), disc front/drum rear brakes, and a choice of four-speed manual or automatic transmissions. Top speed was in excess of 190km/h. Christened 'Pagoda' after their distinctive cabin shape, these SL models were amongst the best-loved sports-tourers of their day and continue to be highly sought after by collectors.

The car we offer underwent a comprehensive restoration of the bodywork and mechanicals in the period 2009 to 2013, which is documented by numerous photographs. The car still presents beautifully and has been awarded the coveted ASI 'Oro' certification. Additional documentation consists of a Mercedes-Benz Italia declaration; Italian registration documents; and the aforementioned ASI Certificato di Identita and restoration photographs.
