There are several inaccurate facts in the article regarding the Mercedes Benz W126 cars.
1.The designation W126 refers to the body/chassis style and not to a specific model.
3. The W126 was produced through the 1991 model year and was replaced with the W140 in 1992, NOT 1994 as the article states.
4. The W126 is NOT limited to a "petrol only" or "v8 only" car. In fact the W126 was available in several engine configurations including 6 cylinder diesel models, and 6 cylinder gasoline (petrol) models.
2. There were many more models produced using the W126 body than the article mentions. There were three primary variarions: a 4-door sedan designated by model numbers xxxSE (where xxx refers to the displacement in cubic centemeters), the long 4-door sedan (5 inches more leg room for back seat) designated xxxSEL, and the 2-door coupe designated by xxxSEC. A non-exhaustive list includes these models within the W126 designation:
300SE 300SEL 300SDL 350SDL 380SE 380SEL 380SEC 420SEL 560SEL 560SEC
5. Heated seats were only standard on the top of the line models, i.e.: 1986-1991 560SEL. All other models offered them as an option.
