This is the model variant of the Mercedes-Benz 2.8 SL280 2DR range, available to buy at Motor Trade UK.

There are cars. And then there are cars. The Mercedes-Benz SL is not transport its theatre on wheels. The shape alone is iconic: long bonnet, short rear deck, roof down, the sort of car you expect to see gliding through Monte Carlo with Sinatra on the stereo.

This one is the SL280, powered by Mercedes silky-smooth 2.8-litre V6. Its not about screaming revs or lap times; its about that unflustered, effortless surge of power that makes every journey feel like an event. Whether youre burbling along the seafront or stretching its legs on the open road, it delivers the sort of charm modern cars can only dream of.

The cabin is classic Mercedes solid, elegant, and built to last. Leather, wood, and that reassuring thunk when you shut the door. You sit low, you sit proud, and you instantly understand why the SL badge is legendary.
