My vote goes to....

The W116. If the AC alone works it is worth more than the 126. Given that they have the same engine, and in this case the same body length (both S-class short bodies) the ride on the 116 is better and turning radius significantly smaller than the the 126. If the 116 has no rust it is a definitive winner.

mileage wise i would be leery of a 300k car. 200k yes, 300k it need a new chain for sure!!!

Last point, my wife mentioned the poop color of the 126. Cream is so much classier...
