I enjoyed your series on the W116. A small correction: The 350SE was initially available with the Mercedes K4A 040 4-speed fluid-coupling automatic gearbox and later in life switched to the 3-speed W3A 040 torque converter gearbox. Although equipped with one less gear, the later transmission was said to be more refined with smoother shifts and with less of a tendency to hang onto lower gears too long. As the W116 was officially introduced in South-Africa only in 1974, all were sold here with the later 3-speed. Unfortunately, we never got the V8 locally in a manual. Anyway, I did warn that it was only a small correction.
