Personally, I just enjoy the massive thunk you get from slamming the doors of the W116, R107, and W126. To me, that says "Benz!". You don't get that from the W140.
you should not slam the doors on a 140...its has closing assist....so why would you need to?

In regard to substantial feeling...my opinion is that the 140 is a tank....lot more car than the 126(and the price reflected it)

Having owned both makes...there is a HUGE difference in the two

If you love all the attributes of the 140...you will feel short -changed in the 126....big technology difference....more interior room...a good stereo(finally!!!), much more sophisticated climate control system...etc..etc...etc...etc
