I'm wondering if that Ebay W109 steering wheel had been 'updated'. I think the W114/115s had the 'hard' steering wheels until '74 but I did find a picture of a '71 350SL with the 'soft' wheel. I think the soft steering wheel, without the chrome horn ring, may be more comfortable for some and safer but I personally like the appearance of the early 'unsafe' style. My Fintail has a white one with the full round horn ring!

Happy Motoring, Mark
