Wheelbase: 94. 5” With a production run of only 5. 96 in just over a 12-month period. the 250 SL is the rarest of the W113 SL series cars. The 250 SL received an increase in engine size over the outgoing 230 SL to 2. 96 cc giving it a broader torque curve. Combined with the stiffer suspension retained from the 230 SL. this made for a noticeable improvement in performance and driving pleasure. Furthermore. rear disc brakes were added. the fuel tank was enlarged to 21. 7 gal. cooling capacity was increased from 2. 0 gal to 3. 4 gal. and the previously optional oil-water heat exchanger was made standard.
