From the few Swiss people I've met in real life they seem to fall into two main camps - the German Swiss and the French Swiss. As you might imagine the there's a bit of agitation between these two parties. If you go to Geneva then there's one heck of a lot of Italians mixing things up too!

From a car perspective => You might find that you get a different car attitude in different parts of the country.

However, I get the feeling that the majority of the "USA" 20 year plus Mercedes vehicles (based on what I see and read on these forums) would probably give the owners a miserable time at the MOT testing stations in most European countries.

If I were you I'd replace what you have with something that is already in Switzerland. Time for a full options W140 methinks!
