"Pagoda"

Have you noticed more people in the US now call the W 113 SL a "Pagoda"?

A couple of years ago, very few people in the US used that nickname, including even owners. It was almost purely a European nickname. Now, lots of US sellers on ebay use that name routinely.

Hi Guys,

When I called my eBay seller to ask questions about Carling before I bought her, I said, "Sooo, you're the guy with the Pagoda."  He said, "Hunh?"  I thought, why should you have this car if you don't even know its name?  and we changed that, didn't we?
