Synopsis

Mercedes-Benz W111 V8 Cabriolets have reached values that were deemed impossible just a decade ago. Now also coupes and the six-cylinder two-door models started to follow. Luckily there are other 1960s Mercedes models such as the W110, W111 Sedans that offer as much fun to drive at a much lower price. The W112 is a special case due to its 300SL derived engine and occasionally tricky air-suspension. Updated in Dec. 2016, this 300-page guide gives you the facts about the W110 sedan and W111/112 two- and four-door models. It also explains in detail chassis number and data card and offers a comprehensive buyer's guide. All this is accompanied by great recent non-Daimler AG color photos, including pictures of the suspension. The title is one of over twenty-five books/e-books by the author about Mercedes cars. And these are some of the topics covered:

• Developing the W111 fintail
• Technical aspects
• New safety features
• The 220b and 230S series

Why is this book not available as hard cover? Even today with modern digital printing services available, books with many color photos are expensive to produce. This book comes with some 320 high quality photos, around 250 of them in color, and would cost retail as hardcover version over US$ 80 (or the corresponding amount in £ or €), which the author finds excessive. That is why the choice to offer the more reasonable to produce soft cover option. Thank you for your understanding.
