Forecast of Facelift Scope?

Other than speculation about the Vision style nose ... is there any information on what changes MB intends to make mid series?

Do Auto Spies or other sources ever predict these with any accuracy in advance?

Looking back over R107 and R129 series changes, I supose improvements in the braking systems, roof mechanisms, DVD Nav and 7 speed transmission are typical mid series changes.

Did I read somewhere MB intends to changing the number of valves per cylener?

An all new engine that's much more 'today' is supposed to be in the pipeline.
The nose, well, let's just say I'm kind of glad we bought our last Mercedes.
