Does anybody know the year range of the 280CE in the W123 body style sold here in America? I was looking at the M110 Engine Wiki page and they only report the M110 being in the 280CE up until 1981. Presumably most 1982 models were made in 1981 however I am just curious if anyone knows if there was another engine in the 1982 besides the M110?

Thanks!

In the USA (from 1982) only a 300CD Turbo was available. W123.153 chassis.

The 280CE was available in USA from 1977-81 only. W123.053 chassis

The US 280CE was from 77-81.

But in europe they continued until 1985.

All 280CE's had M110 but some of them were slightly differnent such as US spec and euro spec.
