Unfortunately we can't read the plate here (maybe Kazimann noted it while watching the film) -- Last edit: 2011-11-11 17:18:55

Were they built in small numbers? Sorry, it's a W124, not a W123. Mercedes itself has offered "Lang"-versions, even for the predecessors of the W123, the W114/115, also the previous W110, but they weren't that long. These extra long conversions were made by other coachbuilders.
RyanTee82 ◊ 2012-05-05 01:58	I know, the W123 was an earlier car. I meant the style of limo with extra length at the C-pillar (and the extra window). Was the car shown here built by a coachbuilder? I've never seen a limousine version of like this of a late 1980s Mercedes. Very cool car.
