The early 4Matics like on this car were a horror, and said to be best avoided on cars like these W124 wagons, which was the first time this feature showed up on the on Mercedes.

I hope you got a good one, but the 4matic feature on the W124 may have been the reason the car went so cheap. With luck you might not have any 4matic problems - I hope so.

Everything else about them was very good, except for the other typical things W124 owners needed to watch out for, such as the head gasket leak, wiring harness, etc.
