1970 280 SE Automatic, black with Maroon MB Tex, Floor shift, power windows, rear reading lights, Behr A/C with Green window tint. Not the most smoothest nor quitest engine but a really strong performer. Regret selling her in 1994, nearly 200,000 miles of emotional attachment with that car. Damn it I regret it every day!
Dont want to sound argumentive but i think the /8 only refered to the W114 and W115 which were launched in 1968. The W 108 traced its roots back to 1961 I think.
