At €139,500, it sits below the median of €159,000 for the 13 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL advertised in Europe in 2026. 38% of them are advertised for less. Asking prices are not transaction prices, and specification differences explain much of the spread.

The manufacturer's base list price was €12,424 in Germany, excluding options. This car is advertised at €139,500, 1023% above that figure. A list price is the launch price of the version without options, so a heavily specified car left the factory above it, and it says nothing about what the car is worth today. That 1968 list price is converted to euros with no adjustment for inflation.
