Hello friends,
you folks always seem completely aware of all the news, but I only just stumbled on this article and can't find it mentioned in any other thread.

A very nice article. Some great lead-in/end notes on the 190/300 SL and the 107 cars.
Also an amazing listing of sources

Thanks for posting Peter.  A very enjoyable read.   A good part of the information we have seen in some form but having it all together and tied to the earlier, later and concurrent models, is very interesting.
