Sorry mate, but I don't speak Deutsch very well. Come to think of it, I don't speak Deutsch at all. What this article is all about?
I know three sad stories involving the W140.
-The S600 involved in Princess Diana's accident.
-The Silver S500 used in "The Peacemaker" chase scene
-The S280 transformed into a cottage by Jeremy Clarkson.
Personally, I love the W140 and still is my favourite S-Class.

The W140 always puts me at ease, and it did again 3 weeks ago, when I sat in a used one (even though it was in drab black). It just feels so spacious, safe and grand.
