All this comes with superb recent non-Daimler AG color photography, including pictures of the suspension. It is one of over twenty-five books/e-books by the author about Mercedes cars.

Why is this book not available as hard cover? Even today with modern digital printing services available, books with many color photos are expensive to produce. This book comes with around 180 high quality photos, most of them in color, and would cost retail as hardcover version over US$ 75 (or the corresponding amount in or ), which the author finds excessive. That is why the choice to offer the more reasonable to produce soft cover option. Thank you for your understanding.
