1976+ as earliest possibility. |

Please change: This is a 1980 - 1982 due to the headrests (pre 1980 models had "bunny ears"-styled headrests, and 1983+ had wider headlights on all models). The model could either be a 200, 200 D, 220 D, 230 E, 240 D, 250 or 300 D. If this has any export features, this should be "Made for Bahamas", as this scene was filmed there. |

Federal laws apply on the Bahamas, so made for USA. |

Bahamas are an independent country. As a former British colony, they drive on the left. |

"Made for BS" would be better, I think. |

Looks to me LHD, so maybe an ex-US car which ended up in Bahamas?? |

If a US one it won't be a 200 as it is now listed for some reason. |

This scene was filmed in the Bahamas. All the vehcles in scenes filmed in the Bahamas appear to be left hand drive, even for models not sold in the US like the Kia Pregio: /vehicle_91814-Kia-Pregio-2004.html |

It seems that even if they drive on the left in the Bahamas, vehicles with steering wheel on the left, like the W123, are common, depending on the source of import. For tourists, it's specifically mentioned that rental cars can be either LHD or RHD. Edit: Typo -- Last edit: 2018-01-22 01:21:57 |

@rjluna2; these have the look of the open, uncovered US headlamps, don't you agree? |
