History

The 250 SL was introduced at the 1967 Geneva Motor Show. Production had already commenced in December 1966 and ended in January 1968.

The short one-year production run makes the 250 SL the rarest of the W 113 series cars. The 250 SL retained the stiffer suspension and sportier feel

of the early SLs, but provided improved agility with a new engine and rear disc brakes. Range also improved with increased fuel tank capacity from 65 L to 82 L.

Like its predecessor, the 250 SL was offered with a 4-speed automatic transmission, and 4-speed or ZF 5-speed manual transmissions. For the first time, an optional

limited slip differential was also available. Of the 5,196 250 SLs produced, more than a third were sold in the US.

The main change was the use of the 2,496 cc (2.5 L) M129. The engine with 6 mm (0.2 in) increased stroke, 2 mm (0.1 in) increased valve ports, and

seven main bearings instead of four. The nominal maximum power remained unchanged at 150 PS (110 kW; 148 hp), but torque improved from 145 lb⋅ft (197 N⋅m)

to 159 lb⋅ft (216 N⋅m). Resiliency also improved with a new cooling water tank ("round top") with increased capacity from 10.8 L to 12.9 L, and a standard oil-water

heat exchanger.
