I wonder how many of the 300D stretch limo's were imported into the U.S.? It would kinda tell me what my likelyhood of finding one is!I would love to get a Euro one! Of course my money doesn't go as far as my I wants!

Most likely that knob is for the extremely rare power-armrest option.

On a car with crank windows Looks more like a timer dial... perhaps for a parking heater?

If the pics are mostly euro spec cars Im guessing something exotic ,My guess would be a back speaker fader of some sort.This CAR does look like a late
70s model ,I think the early 80s got a speaker leveler from front to back in that same location.
On the exotic side , a boost for Horsepower on the autobahn.

I think it might be the control switch for the Webasto Auxillary Heater.
