Most of these badges are fairly self-explanatory.
However, what did the “automatic” one come off?

Probably a Late 80, early 90s Mercedes..

Definitely a 60s MB.
IIRC, the badges started being added sometime in mid 1964.

You might like to drop back about two decades!

It could be any one of a number of 60s and 70s models. I think they dropped the badges by the W123.

That seems right. I have seen them on later fintails, many 114/115, 113s, many 108/109, and I think I have seen it on a couple 116s, although not sure of the authenticity of the latter.

Nice. Price doesn’t seem too bad if it is genuinely nice, I know they are worth more on the other side of the pond.

I was going to say that don’t say Mercedes to me, especially with the underline

That seat on the left would explain why girls like to ride tractors so much.

The underline was a thing until 1991-93, phased out at different times for different models.

Dang there’s a typo in my post. It’s supposed to say “that font says Mercedes to me” but for some reason my autocorrect replaces font with “don’t”.
