MY 1968-69 Mercedes-Benz [W 108] Automatic.

Models possible: 280 S or 280 SE, and, albeit rather unlikely because of the numbers built, 250 S.

@zodiac - seeing as it's automatic I'm pretty sure that would make it a 280 SE, as the 250S/280S were manual only in Australia.

Interesting.
It always surprises me how various models were exported, but I suppose it make sense to build them in batches. If nothing else at least because of quality reasons if having to be called back.
And Automatic on the most expensive model also make sense as that for some reason was looked upon as more exclusive.

I like manual transmissions because of two reasons; they're easier to repair and they're more fuel efficient.
