At the end of the 1960s, Mercedes-Benz had to pull out all the stops to replace the Type 110, as this car was a huge success in the brand's history, selling over 600,000 units.
It has to be said that during the glorious 30s, the formula of combining luxury and quality while keeping the price down worked wonders.
The success of the W110 made Mercedes a key player in the market, and its successor is set to build on this success.
First and foremost, the famous "Heckflosse" fins, reminiscent of large American sedans, were dropped.
Instead, Paul Bracq gave the chassis a slender "Ponton" design, typical of the Sixties.
Two versions are available: the 6-cylinder W114 only, and the 4 and 5-cylinder W115.
