After its iconic predecessor, the 190SL, which passed its competitors by with flying colors, it was time for renewal. Mercedes teamed up with French designer Paul Bracq to give the entire SL line a fresh new touch and this was an immediate success coming from 1963 to 1970 and in different engineizations as 230SL, 250SL and 280SL. As the more powerful brother of the 230 SL, the 250SL came on the market in 1966. It is known for its very precise steering, extremely pleasant driving experience and, of course, its beautiful lines. As the big brother of the 230SL, it came on the market with a 2.5 liter engine and delivered as much as 158hp. Moreover, the 250SL is also the rarest of the three as the fewest were made, so in terms of collectors item you know what to choose!
