Ten W114 versions appear in this table, from 1968 to 1976. The petrol range goes from the M115 four-cylinder of the 200 to the M180, M114, M130 and M110 six-cylinders, up to the 185 hp 280E with D-Jetronic injection. Two diesels complete the line-up: the 220D (OM615) and the 240D (OM616), with 60 and 65 hp. All have chain-driven timing. Watch out for the 250: depending on the period, it gets a 2.5 l M114 or a 2.8 l M130, so check the engine code before buying your parts.
