as i´m aware the grand luxe trim level was introduced for the 1971 update so you´re not missing it from 1970 as it doesn´t exist

Well there is were you are wrong

There was a 144 Grand Luxe 1970 made for Germany!

I only seen pictures of it,but it has "Grand Luxe" badge (not sure about fenders)at the rear atleast in the old style writing same as in "overdrive" and "automatic" for -->1970

It had the steelblue-metallic paint and black leather and the "S"engine.

So we can probably thank the germans that there is such a model because it was probably a request from them to start making them.

You might also want a 1975 US 164E badge, in the 200 style for the cross-over year:

There were a few 1970 144 Grand Luxe sold in Western Europe. I have that rear end badge (not for sale). I know about 4+ of these cars throughout Europe.

The 1970 Grand Luxe had the Grand Luxe emblem on the rear end only. As it had a B20B engine, the front fenders had the usual 144S badge. On the dashboard there were no emblem, as the 71-72 model had.

Keep up with collecting, nice collection already. Soon you will reach the level of this canadian; http://www.flickr.com/photos/12663308@N06/6810557401

Canadian emblem collector here, that is a great collection you have. I got hooked on collecting emblems when I started searching for 242 GL emblems for my restoration of a 1977 242 GL. I had bought a new one so many years ago now, but it was not until I started to restore a 242 to the same configuration that I found out haw rare a car I had, and I started searching everywhere for those emblems, after about 4 years of collecting I finally found a complete set of NOS 242 GL emblems.
Being in Canada many specific 200 series and other cars were not offered here, So I have learned many words of Swedish, German and others to search all over the world for emblems.
I now have emblems of cars I have never heard of before, like the 244 DLS, 245 Transfer, 164 and 264 TE, and others. I have not collected from the 300 or 400 series as I do not know much about those cars.
Here is a link to my flickr photos, and you can refer to my sets or my main photo collection to see some of the items I have collected.

My 200 series collection is getting a bit out of date, and I will have a new photo up shortly. I also collect 200 series steering wheels and horn pads of other models too.
Here is a photo of emblems I am looking for at present, although I have just acquired a 245 Transfer early rear emblem

The auto & o/d badges at the top (2nd & 3rd) look like Amazon badges - are they the same? Didn't realise these were used on the 140s too.

Yes they are the same type on Amazon 1967-70 as on the 140/164´s

On this picture you can see how the overdrive-badge looked on the Amazon
1964-66 (rigth lower corner) to my knowledge there wasnt a automatic-badge for those years.
