The Mercedes was delivered new to Emperor Bokassa I via the company Oubangui Automobile in Bangui, Central African Republic. The W111 was part of the palace fleet from 1970 to 1979 when Bokassa and his family had to flee into exile in France. However, he was able to take the car and many other treasures with him. He was later forced to sell some of his possessions, and so an almost mint condition 3.5 Cabriolet returned to Germany. Fortunately, it has since been in the hands of collectors who have recognized and preserved its sensational quality.
