The white steering wheel irritates a bit, as AFAIK since 1968/69 they were black. But it's popular by the fans, to change it, as the white one (very expensive on spare parts markets). Otherwise: this specific car is obvioulsy not owned by an enthusiast. They very last W108/109 had the thicker W116 "safety steering wheel".
