W113 aluminum body panels
« on: September 11, 2010, 10:40:12 »
Hi,

I may soon be a new Pagoda owner and I'm trying to educate myself on the subject. I would like to know if any of the body panels on Pagodas are made out of aluminum. If yes, which ones? Is it true for all models?

Thanks!

Hello Gael

The following panels on a pagoda are made of aluminium:
  • bonnet (hood)
  • doors
  • softtop cover
  • boot (trunk lid)

The rest of the car is made of steel.
This applies to all pagoda models.
