There was a W116 gasser I believe a S280 that was previously used by the Belgian Consulate as I recall.
It was a deep green almost British Racing Green, a gorgeous car with flag posts on the front fenders. It reeked Factory Special!

It was dropped off at a shop I worked at part time on a Friday afternoon. It was a 9.5 on a scale of ten and the owner was grooming it for a sale and I suppose I could have taken out a second mortgage and bought it if I had asked all the right questions!
I never learned who bought it but it belonged in a museum!
Be sure and insure your car appropriately!
