The W110 "Fintail" (German: Heckflosse) was Mercedes-Benz's line of midsize four-cylinder automobiles in the mid-1960s. The line was introduced with the 190c and 190Dc sedan in 1962, replacing the W120 180c/180Dc and W121 190b/190Db. The W110 line was refreshed in 1965 to become the 230, with the lower 200 and Diesel 200D introduced in 1966. Production lasted just two more years, with the W115 220 and 220D introduced for 1968.

[edit] First Series (1962-1965)

The 1962 190c replaced the W120 180c/180Dc and W121 190b/190Db as Mercedes-Benz's line of less-expensive four-cylinder sedans. The "D" denoted a Diesel engine, a technology pioneered by Mercedes-Benz and championed despite widespread derision in the motoring press.
