It was one of the worst car ever, he told me. Very upper-class styling (leather seats, woolen carpets, wooden dashboard, etc.) - but uncountable much defects and breakdowns. No kidding: they were so f.cked up with it after a while, that they only have used for one thing: driving to the ALDI-supermarket. Because it was just 2 km away - a distance you could manage to go back on foot, when the next breakdown had come. And what did the father use for his business trips? You may guess it: his old, rusty K 70.

Series II was discontinued before 1981/2. From March 1979 onwards the Series III had been introduced. I do not know of any 'Series II 1/2' or 'Series III 1/2' although there were many small design changes. These terms possibly could have been applied to a late model Series II or Series III.
