I really enjoyed this. Nice idea do break them into series. And your comment at the end about people who drive with their fist at the top of the wheel in an attempt to look more cool, or show off a watch? I loved it. So true.
Have owned the 1974 450 SEL for 20 plus years. I still looks quite Stately with the American (barge) bumpers! Speaking of body integrity; after a very heavy unusual snow fall a portion of my barn collapsed onto the Mercedes. The car was mashed onto the ground however only a small crease was visible once the structure was removed.

Top w116
Thanks!
Was this video shot around Pretoria?
Somerset West ☺
Could you maybe do an acceleration run of the Ford Ecosport 1.5 petrol 6-speed auto?
We'll do our best to book one... shall we performance-test a W116 in the meantime? 😜
Galimoto Media thanks for the attempt. Might as well, would be far more entertaining!
i have a 1978 280 se coupe
Is it a custom conversion?
Audi V8 luxury Flagship came out in 1989 to compete
Indeed it did, thanks for your comment!
