When it was introduced in 1963, he Mercedes-Benz 230SL two-seater marked a huge improvement over the outgoing 190SL roadster. For one thing, t boasted a 150 hp six-cylinder engine, nstead of the 190’s four-cylinder. Surrounding that was a crisp, ngular design, ith an unusual concave hardtop roof that led to the sobriquet “Pagoda Top,” by which the model has since been known.
While not intended as an out-and-out sports car, ugene Bohringer succeeded in winning the rugged Spa-Sofia-Liege Rally in the 230SL’s competition debut, hich Sporting Motorist called “the sort of debut one would expect from the Stuttgart factory.” Mostly, hough, he pagoda top SLs became the choice of celebrities and the wealthy, ore likely to be seen cruising sunny coastal roads, r parked in front of trendy restaurants and grand hotels, han covered in mud with rally numbers on the sides.
