the rear overhang...

can't use the wheel stoppers as a gauge to park like modern car 😁

 

If no big bollard there. The railing would have been bent by the stainless steel bumper.
Still remember a friend whacked at lamppost with his W116 rubber coated steel bumper. The lamppost was swaying. Just some small marks on the rubber portion of the steel bumper. If one does the same with the current Mercedes, bumper chwee and will be 4K to replace. 🤣

before 360 cameras

it was simple one cam rear view camera

simple opiang ultrasonic sensors, some with lights and sound, some sound only, some will show distance in numbers

parking pole

curb feelers, it is an american thing...

but the most useful one is wife, I still use it now from time to time, even our car has 360 cameras, wife can give signals to allow me to park 1cm away from walls

just yell... "eh, go down to guide me"

voice control, quite reliable so far

 I see one in a rusty-red/bronze type colour with the silver pillars. Looks good also. Love the accents in the roof for people to fit inside, like an old Ford GT45.
