Wondering what you guys think of the older W126 bodystyle...

Old or modern? Anyone have a pic of a W140 parked next to a Euro-spec W126 for comparison?

Personally I love both and I have the 126. I would choose the w140 but it is a lemon. The 126 was the best built Mercedes ever.

Now thats a new one! Actually W140 without a warranty is expensive to maintain, but i wont call it a lemon though.

What makes the w140 particularly special is that it is so much more massive when compared to the w116 and w126!

Where did you get that picture? I saw that in some book on the S-class but I can't remember the name.

I actually got this picture on some MB website. It's been so long, I can't remember what site it is. Check out my gallery, I got tons of other interesting pics that I've found in various websites.
