The first one was a used TS 1961 model with 140 000km. The engine was perfect but was destroyed when the oil pump physically came lose and fell into the sump. My dear wife did not know what the red light was for and simplky kept on going until the engine seized. I had it repaired and served in the three later models I had. For its day it was miles ahead of anything else except perhaps Volvo. Tremendous cars and I would love to have one today. Steering was tops, beating even today's power steering Mercedes Benz I presently have! I had four of these cars. The first one was a used TS 1961 model with 140 000km.
