Time for a Merc, naturally the W189, sold as the 300d.
A 3.0 diesel of course. Except that it wasn’t, it was an even more upmarket 300 with a long wheelbase and fuel injection for its M189 engine which produced a claimed 180 bhp, fair going at the time .
Its USP was a pillarless hardtop body which gave you the ability to completely open the side of the car (the rear quarterlight could be removed) and show off the potentate within to best advantage.
It was replaced by the 600 which was like the 300d but much, much more so.
