everything else better, than the '74(78K) and '79(5K) Town Cars I've driven.

From the few hours that I was able to actually drive the w126 LWB, I
thought it was a superb car and wanted that model just for the leg

I own both a W126.125 (1986 300SDL) and a W124 (1993 300E 2.8). Both are
terrific cars.
I like the performance, handling, economy (30mpg on the road), simple design,
reliability, style and comfort of the W124. I have no problem with the elbow on
the window sill, can put the seat back far en
having a comfortable ride.
