W123, 1985 300TD Wagon, 256K,
-Most recent M.B. purchase, Cost-a-plenty, Gulps BioDiesel extravagantly, and I love it like an old dog.

W114, 1975 280E Custard Yellow,
-Great above decks needs chassis welding--Really will do it this year....

And its VERY possible that the seats were CHANGED-OUT at some point maybe to replace the original's that were worn or damaged. So what had TEX now has Leather or vise versa, its an easy swap.

-German Narrator in a MB Promotion Film about the then brand new W123.

Brought up in a discussion with another shop forum member:

If MB put so much effort into engineering such an outstanding seating material, how come they didn't funnel a little of that effort into making a dashboard that wouldn't crack?

I reconditioned my leather seats with Leatherique products. It took a whole week or sanding, reconditioning, and re-dying, but they are soft and good as new again.

It's just really top quality leather.
