We received an interesting picture of a stretched Mercedes-Benz W126 S-class, seen somewhere in the great city of Hangzhou, capital of Zhejiang Province. Back in the glorious 1980’s there were zillions of companies hacking up the mighty S, some good, some bad… This Hangzhou car is modestly stretched with just some 20 centimeters around the B-pillar. Good car! Other W126 we met in China: 500 SEL, 300SE.
