Latter (1982) W123's got rectangular headlights (with the exception of the 280 and 280E / 280TE and the coupes which had those from the beginning). I prefer the circular lights seen here because that's the W123 I saw growing up. And I love those hubcaps. I think I know the ones you prefer (like on the 450SEL 6.9 right?), but those don't look too good on the W123 IMO. Those 14" rims are "too sporty" and looking at the W123, you can't help see an elegant car with almost no sporting potentials.
