When a black Mercedes looks good, it looks VERY good. I think black is the
most appropriate color for an S class, but I'm beginning to be a bit
embarrassed that my 126 doesn't look as good as it should.

But it's a small price to pay for the "cool" factor of driving a black car
Wilton. ;-) I saw a new black S Class today. It's in the 90s here, but
still, the car looked soooo good. Not a speck of dust on it anywhere
either, and I know black isn't the easiest colour to maintain.

I can't touch outer surface of my black car while entering it while it's
sitting in the sun on one of these really hot days. I can touch outer
surface of the white one reasonably OK under same conditions.

I agree - the black interior is a turn-off. Sheepskins might make it
acceptable though.
I measured the inside temp at the console with the IR thermometer last
Sunday in both the black 124 and the white 124, both of which had been
sitting in the sun all day - around 4PM. The temp in both of them was
137F.
Surprised me! I was sure that the black car would be hotter. It does
have
tinted windows, and the white car doesn't, I don't know it that makes a
difference or not. Htey were parked at 90 degrees to each other, so it
wasn't a really good test, but interesting that both temps were same!
The door facing West on the black car was 165F.

Looks like the rod bender engine has been replaced -- is the 350SD the
short
wheel base version? Might have to go look at this one.
