MB never put a 2 speed or 3 speed auto in a car.

No, our 450 SL has one.  So far as I know, all MB automatics
were four-speeds with a fluid coupler.  I thought they put
the 3-speeds into the V8 cars, but they had a torque converter
to make up for the lack of first gear.  (Our SL will do about
60 in first.)  Later they went to four-speeds with the TC.
