w112 coupe, w113, and w108 I suppose. I'd choose any of these before the models listed above.

W136 convertible, w136 diesel, W 128 convertible.

I think the poll choices may be limited in number so all choices possible could not be listed, I am assuming.

Yep. I was thinking about doing splitting it up into narrower body styles, but I'm too lazy.

I didn't see the 208 body style so I voted for the other option.

Had trouble deciding between the W124 and W126...then I remembered that I have a real hankering for the SEC wide bodies!
