Why does Kobo only see 147 pages for this book? Because they count the text portions, but not all of the photos. Photos are for the author an important part of a book about cars and together with the photos, the total page count for this book is 240 pages, just like in the printed version of it.
With over 25 books and e-books written about Mercedes-Benz cars, Bernd S. Koehling has proven to be an authority on the brand. Those books cover cars from the 1947 170V to the 2012 SL R231.
