Today the supercharged M111 engine is regarded as one of Mercedes-Benz's most durable and dependable powerplants, further enhancing the model's desirability among collectors.

Original Italian-market examples with documented mileage, ASI Historic Certification, complete maintenance history and exceptional preservation are becoming increasingly rare.
