Crappy styling began in earnest with the W126 line IMHO, although I am not a fan of the finnies or the W114/5 sedans or coupes which are too boxy/clunky in my view
110/111/112 were not designed to be beautiful. They were designed to be practical. Think back to where Germany was in 1958. only 13 years after total annihilation. A practical car for a practical people.
Wat did detriot iron look like in 1958? Boxy. What did all 1958 cars look like, except the Karmann Ghia and a few sports cars? Boxy. 110s were a car for their time. They still are admirable 50 some years later.
