When the next scene is shown, supposedly inside the car, there is a separation glass rising between the chauffeur and the (VIP) passengers. I guess it is poetic licence. |

Wide chrome around the door windows and between the front window and the front door suggests a Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL [W 112]. Otherwise; 1968+ wheel covers, 1966-67 door mirror, I'm not sure about the grille. Edit: Any interior pictures for a more precise date of the car? -- Last edit: 2015-10-18 20:37:49 |

As I said, the interior pictures show a glass separation between front and back rows of seat. Do you think they can be authentic? (They look studio-made.) |

No, they are not all studio-made.![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Isn't she a bit young to be a [W112]? |

1966 for default year, right? |

Indeed. Built from March 1966, onwards. Is there any more picture of the facia (dashboard)? The reason for asking is that the partitions between the upper and lower parts changed a number of times during the years. (I'm sorry for not having commented, I haven't been near the computer for a couple of days.) -- Last edit: 2015-10-20 16:50:36 |
