Dakota had it mostly right:
110 ft/lb (150nm) for 140, but also the ML (163) S Class (220) and CL Class (215)
80 ft/lb (which confusingly is 110nm) on just about anything else you can think of (123, 124, 129, 170, 201, 202, 210)
You'd need to double check on the latest designs such as the 203, R230, 211 E class. I think some or all of these use a torque spec somewhere between 80 ft/lb ans 110 ft/lb, possibly 100 ft/lb, but again new car guys, check the owners manual, the specs are in there.
If you have a wheel bolt in your hands for a car with the 80 ft/lb spec and the 110 ft/lb spec (say a 140 and a 124 chassis) you can see the bolt is much thicker (larger diameter) for the higher torque spec car.
