Lightbulb Correction

In the article, after stating which engine types are available, you said something along the lines of "besides the inline 4L, 5L, 6L engines there was also a V8"
... I think you meant 4 cyl. , 5 cyl, or 6 cyl.

Just FYI

You go into depth with the W210 AMG modifications, but mention nothing of the W124 AMG "Hammer" V8 variant. Nor the 500E, either, the first MB factory V8-engined W124, developed in a unique collaboration with Porsche, which hand-assembled 10,500 examples.

Several of these articles also list a wide selection of "Volts" that were supposedly available.

"...with 10, 16, 18, 20 or 24, 32 Volts..."

Either I've missed something over the years about the "12 volt" (6-cell. 13.8v) standard, or it's the wrong word. ;-)

in the W 123 article it states
The updated styling of the Mercedes-Benz W123 featured horizontal oriented, quad unequal-sized headlights
This is not correct, the w123 did not have quad headlights, it had only two, with smaller fog/driving lights inboard.
