W126 SLS vs Hydropneumatic Suspension

Who wins when it comes to pure ride comfort and pleasure
I am torn between the two 560s.one is original but but has no HP.The one with HP Suspension is fitted with lpg and interior partly redone,so not really a keeper...So l need advice to choose.If one says hp suspension is a magic ride and sls can not beat it l will lean towards it...below you can see the pics.
Thank you.
And one with Hydropneumatic Suspension below...

Have you driven both cars? Very few of the HPF cars made it to the USA so it's hard for me to give an opinion.

I have a 116 6.9 and the HPF ride is perfect. But..... you need to maintain (and renovate) the HPF system very well and hardly anyone in the US can do it really.
So I started to so it myself with success so far.
The regulator and pump would be the first candidate to look at and renovate if it were my project.
