Its story

The Mercedes-Benz 280SL Pagoda is an iconic sports car, renowned for its elegance and performance. Produced from 1967 to 1971, it stands out with its unique pagoda-shaped roof and luxurious interior. Designed to meet increasingly stringent safety standards, it nonetheless retained the sporty character of its predecessors. Its powerful 2.8-liter engine and innovations, such as automatic seatbelts, made it a remarkable vehicle for its time.

But this particular model has a unique story: it once belonged to the Belgian painter Jean-Michel Folon, who saw in this automobile a perfect blend of art, design, and freedom. Over the years, the 280SL was also rented by numerous international personalities. Among them were tennis legend Roger Federer, goalkeeper Thibault Courtois, Formula 1 driver George Russell, and actress Eva Longoria, all captivated by its timeless charm and refined comfort.

Today, this 280SL Pagoda is more than just a car: it is a living witness of an era and a legacy of art and culture. Highly sought after by collectors, it remains a symbol of Mercedes-Benz’s commitment to quality, innovation, and automotive excellence.
